Charlotte Flair vs. Sasha Banks vs. Bayley vs. Nia Jax
The self-proclaimed “Queen of Pay-Per-View” Charlotte Flair marches into WrestleMania season with a full head of steam after her successful defense against Bayley at the Royal Rumble, taking her unprecedented PPV winning streak to 16-0.
With Fastlane acting as the one and only roadblock on the road to the big one, you have to believe that Charlotte will be waltzing into Orlando in April with her winning streak intact to heighten the stakes at WrestleMania. So who does she have left to face? Well, quite frankly, nobody. At least not in one-on-one competition.

The Raw women’s division, as much as Mick Foley likes to put it over, is still far less stacked than that of SmackDown Live, as you can count all of the relevant contenders to the championship on one hand – with fingers to spare.
Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte has been done to death, we just witnessed Bayley get her chance at the Royal Rumble in a losing effort and Nia Jax doesn’t fit the bill simply because a heel vs. heel confrontation is not going to represent Raw’s women’s division at WrestleMania. So what’s the alternative?
Why, putting all four women in the ring at the same time of course!
This is definitely the best option given what we have, and as Charlotte continues to increase her streak, the fact that she only has a 25% chance of walking out of a fatal four-way match at WrestleMania with the championship in tow, makes the prospect of her defending both the title and the streak that much more enticing.
The seeds are already being planted with Sasha and Bayley – after Sasha Banks’ passive aggressive comment about Bayley being okay with coming up short. And with Nia picking up a win against Banks at the Royal Rumble, all four women are beginning to pick up some momentum on the Road to WrestleMania.
It’s the most logical bout that Raw’s women’s division can put forward, and should it happen at WrestleMania 33, it’ll be a spectacular match for sure.
