Becky Lynch recently discussed when and how she decided to write her upcoming memoir. Lynch’s The Man: Not Your Average Average Girl releases next week and she spoke with Busted Open Radio about deciding to write the book and more. A couple of highlights are below, per Wrestling Inc:
On the origin of the book: “My dad, when I was younger, was always telling me to write everything down. And when I rekindled my love for wrestling as a teenager, Mick Foley was my guy … I could see myself in Mick, the person who wasn’t the athlete but had that fight in ’em, and when he wrote a book, I thought ‘Oh, I’ll write a book.'”
On maintaining her motivation: “You’re gonna have the people that are telling you that you’re not good enough, and what I’ve found more than anything is my own voice in my head [expressing self-doubt]. That Irish Mami work ethic and my dad’s whimsical spirit allowed me to have this wacky dream, but work really hard for it.”
