2. Natalya Becomes The New Raw Women’s Champion
Last night at Extreme Rules, Alexa Bliss finally prevailed against Nia Jax and retained the Raw Women’s Title. Now, Natalya is owed a title shot against Raw Women’s Champion, Alexa Bliss, after defeating her three weeks ago on Raw, as indicated in the link below from WWE’s Youtube page:
Since Ronda Rousey is technically still suspended from Raw for one more week, Natalya can keep her role significant on Raw by challenging Bliss for the championship in the main event. I then foresee her winning the title off of Bliss not only for the shock value but also to include herself in the feud with Rousey and Bliss. Therefore, this can potentially lead to a more unpredictable triple threat title match among them at SummerSlam.
Due to her friendship with Ronda Rousey and beef with Bliss, it would be very fitting to see her involved in the title picture at SummerSlam. In the short term, it will be a spectacular main event title match for Raw, in which Natalya can make Bliss TAP OUT one more time. In the long term, Natalya can maintain her relevancy on the roster, add another well-deserved title to her resume, and bring more interest to the Raw Women’s division.
