Summary
By age seven, Rebecca Quin, now known in the ring as Becky Lynch, was already defying what the world expected of her.
Raised in Dublin, Ireland in a devoutly Catholic family, Rebecca constantly invented new ways to make her mother worry - roughhousing with the neighbourhood kids, getting older and hosting secret parties while her parents were away, enrolling in a warehouse wrestling school, nearly breaking her neck and almost kneecapping a WWE star before her own wrestling career even began - and she was always in search of a thrilling escape from the ordinary.
Rebecca's deep love of wrestling as a child set her on an unlikely path. With few female athletes to look to for guidance, Rebecca pursued a wrestling career hoping to change the culture and move away from the antiquated disrespect so often shown directed at the elite female athletes that grace the ring. Even as a teenager, she knew that she would stop at nothing to earn a space among the greatest wrestlers of our time, and to pave a new path for female fighters.
Culled from decades of journal entries, Rebecca's memoir offers a raw, personal, and honest depiction of the complex woman behind the character Rebecca Quin plays on TV, and a fascinating insight into the world of professional wrestling.

The emotion captured in the narration and the flow of the book kept me hooked.
An story full of emotion and energy. The words flow off the pages and it keeps you riveted, wanting to hear more and keep listening. An emotional, gripping, touching, and powerful autobiography.

Behind the Curtain
It was really interesting to find some background to this seemingly easy life that instead was a struggle through the "fairytale". So many mountains climbed that without the knowledge of the story you would assume had a life handed on a silver platter. A true David vs. Goliath of a life story.

Becky is my absolute idol but after this book I even love her 10 times more. I can relate to the teenage awkwardness and bullying and if I can become half the man becky became I'd be proud. Becky being becky has helped me through some of the darkest times of my life and I'll always be grateful for her giving me that escape. Best book I've ever read. Becky makes me proud to be Irish
