Becky Lynch poised to become first two-time women's Royal Rumble winner

Becky Lynch could become the first woman to win the WWE Royal Rumble twice.

In the world of professional wrestling, the WWE Royal Rumble is a highly anticipated event that showcases the best of the best. While the men's Rumble may be more well-known, the women's Rumble has gained immense popularity and importance in recent years. And in the upcoming 2024 edition, one wrestler has the potential to make history – Becky Lynch.

Becky Lynch, also known as 'The Man,' has already achieved great success in her wrestling career. She has captured numerous championships and has become one of the most beloved and respected figures in the industry. But this year, she has the chance to become the first woman to win the women's Royal Rumble twice.

The women's Royal Rumble has seen some incredible winners in the past, including Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair. These victories have helped solidify the Royal Rumble as a significant stepping stone to WrestleMania. Last year, it was Rhea Ripley who emerged victorious, and she has since become a prominent figure in WWE.

Now, with the 2024 women's Royal Rumble on the horizon, fans are eagerly speculating who will follow in Ripley's footsteps. While there are several potential winners, five wrestlers stand out as the most likely candidates.

One of these contenders is Nia Jax, whose recent win over Becky Lynch showcased her dominance. Jax has been a force to be reckoned with since her return to WWE, and the company seems to be building towards a clash between her and Ripley. With the momentum behind her, Jax could be a strong contender for the Royal Rumble victory.

Another wrestler who has generated a lot of buzz is Jade Cargill. Having recently made the jump from AEW to WWE, Cargill has created quite the reputation for herself. Despite not having wrestled a match yet, she has consistently been favored in the betting odds for the Royal Rumble. A win for Cargill would establish her as a top star in WWE right from the start.

Bianca Belair is no stranger to the grand stage of WrestleMania. While her path may not be as clear this year due to Charlotte Flair's injury, Belair has built a reputation as a standout performer. Her undefeated streak at WrestleMania and her status as a cover star for WWE 2K24 make her a strong candidate for a second Royal Rumble win.

Bayley's storyline with Damage CTRL has captivated fans, and it seems to be leading towards a showdown with stablemate Iyo Sky for the WWE Women's Championship at WrestleMania 40. Bayley's journey from a heel to a babyface aligns perfectly with her potential Royal Rumble win. It all comes down to WWE's creative team's decision on whether Bayley will achieve this feat.

And finally, we come back to the woman who could make history, Becky Lynch. Her avoidance of Rhea Ripley throughout the year suggests a deliberate strategy to build anticipation for their eventual clash. As the biggest star in WWE's women's division, Lynch deserves recognition for her work in elevating other stars. A Royal Rumble victory would be a fitting reward and could set the stage for an extraordinary WrestleMania showdown.

In the end, the outcome of the women's Royal Rumble is uncertain. But the possibility of Becky Lynch becoming the first woman to win the Rumble twice adds an undeniable level of excitement. As fans eagerly anticipate the event, they will be on the edge of their seats, waiting to see who will emerge victorious and earn the coveted spot at WrestleMania 40.
