WWE SummerSlam 2019: 3 reasons why Ember Moon should win
By Mark Justice
1. Charlotte Flair needs someone new to dethrone when SmackDown moves to Fox
Charlotte Flair is bound to be the face of the women’s division when SmackDown Live moves to Fox. If she defeats the legendary Trish Stratus at SummerSlam, she will inevitably be in the title scene once again.
If Ember Moon dethrones Bayley at SummerSlam, Charlotte can target her instead of Bayley, whom she had battled multiple times in the past. A fresh feud between Moon and Flair is exactly what the SmackDown Women’s Division needs.
Considering that Bayley cashed in her MITB contract to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship from Charlotte Flair at MITB 2019, it would be neat for Charlotte and Bayley to battle one more time.
However, Moon and Flair are two top-notch superstars who have not yet had a legitimate feud on the main roster, and it would be a waste to not capitalize on such a feud with the momentum they got going for them at this moment in their careers.
In fact, Charlotte already took a shot at Moon when she claimed that she would get herself a SummerSlam opponent “better than Ember Moon.” This was stated in Charlotte’s backstage interview after she lost to Moon on Smackdown Live.
If these two were to face off in the months after SummerSlam, Charlotte would most likely dethrone Moon. This would sadly make Moon a transitional champion.
Nonetheless, even if the time might be short, a championship victory for Moon would help give her more TV time to manifest her character to the WWE Universe. There’s only hope that she will be pushed straight to the “moon.”
