Becky Lynch reflected on Twitter about being honored as the Wrestler of the Year by CBS Sports.

Start of 2018, I couldn’t even get on TV. You’re never truly down, you’re never truly out. Stand up and fight. Keep swinging even if you don’t know what you’re swinging for, or at. If you’re like me you’ll eventually slap a head that deserves it and the whole world will notice. https://t.co/tPcrj6P5A7
