Can we just talk about Becky Lynch for a second?

I mean, come on. I'm not the biggest fan of WWE, but when I was watching RAW last night, I flipped my shit when I saw Becky Lynch's getup.
Seriously. It's Chandra. She's got the hair, the steampunk-ish goggles. She even looks like she could play Chandra in a live-action MTG movie.
I don't know if the WWE even acknowledges Magic's existence most times, but this seems way too close to be considered a coincidence. Maybe they took inspiration for Becky's ring attire from Chandra's classic look? Idk.
Still pretty cool though. :3
TheDevicer man you were really screwing with me there. I was getting irritated that the page was having weird loading issues.

Huh. My computer must have seriously fucked up the quality of that image. Either that, or it was that shit to begin with, and I just need to get my eyes checked. :P

But like more to the point. You are complaining about someone who is mildly similar in appearance to a fictional character when both aren't that memorable in style and both are ripped out of a real subculture.
Like, real people look like this?

Our latest expansion deal with the invasion of spaghetti monsters. I don't think portraying reality is high up on WotC's list of priorities.

aha, was just browsing SquaredCircle so I saw Becky Lynch's name and it didn't hit me at first that this was on TappedOut.
Ya, it is pretty cool. I honestly don't think it is intentional, but the similarities are there.
What's even weirder is after Becky debuted this outfit (keep in mind her gimmick is Irishwoman with a mild Steampunk flair), it was THEN revealed Chandra came from a Steampunk plane.
Weird stuff man.

At one of the NXT events, she looked even more like Chandra. Becky Lynch is amazing.
