Becky Lynch's new WWE persona has led to many fans comparing her to Connor McGregor.

Lynch spoke about this in an interview with BT Sport.

"The night before my wedding, I was in the hotel recording a voice over for Conor McGregor."

"I robbed one of his lines quite recently. When I said, 'I apologize for absolutely nothing.' I was like, 'Hey, by the way, I'm robbing one of your lines.' He was very nice and very complimentary to me after that. I haven't actually met him, but I have so much respect for Conor in terms of what he can do and he's always been nothing but nice to me in any interaction we've had via messages."

Lynch is still the SmackDown Women's Champion, having won it from Bianca Belair in her return at this year's SummerSlam.
