Rhea is in an awkward spot right now in her career. I'm not sure giving her a title programme at mania over Bianca is a good idea. Bianca is further along then Ripley so it's only right to go with her.

I hope it starts to click for Ripley, she has everything apart from the character and the promo. It's all about when it clicks for her.

Becky vs Alexa at Money In the Bank, now thats an appropriate match. Keep Alexa far away from wrestlemania though. She shouldn't be having a singles match

Shoe horning Bex/Rhea just for the sake of swerving is a terrible idea, I don't get why people want it.

It isn't for the sake of swerving. It is a fresh feud for both women. Plus I think the idea of Ripley/Lynch has better long term potential than Lynch/Belair, especially with Raw's current roster. I mean after Belair/Lynch is the plan to just do Belair/Doudrop again?

Rey/Miz added to the card. I haven't watched Raw yet but the final Women's participant was revealed I read as well I think? Don't wanna accidentally spoil just in case and it's not on WWE.com yet lol
I know WWE tweeted it out but idk if it’s on the site

I hope Alexa wins just for the reaction from everyone that despises this current incarnation of her character, and honestly as a fan of hers I’d be happy.

It might be fresh but to me it's swerving just for the sake of putting a fresh matchup together. Them not closing the book, or at least hitting the final chapter with Bianca regaining the belt would be a bad look imo.

I believe the plan would be to put Belair over clean and get huge rub by doing so. Belair was screwed out of the title so I prefer if they tied up that loose end first

Tying up loose ends. You mean the same WWE that had Owens beat Priest twice and then never followed up on the feud between the two. The same WWE that had Rollins beat Reigns at the Rumble and he never got a rematch. Tying up loose ends isn't really what the WWE does.....at least recently.

You are absolutely right but you know the WWE. The book is never really closed. If they are not injured WWE can't go 6 months without Charlotte or Becky being the champion. So while you are right that it closes the story but my concern is that come late summer or fall they will just give the title to Becky again because that's what the WWE does. You know, doing the same crap booking that they did previously which is how Bianca lost the title in the first place.

"I got one more run in me with the title!"

Also Lita "I'm done after this show."

I Don't think the sell by date is expired for Roman and Seths fued to end. That would be ridiculous. Seth even said he will get his revenge but at the end of the day he is a Raw star and has Raw priorities. Lesnar has picked Roman at Mania. So that makes perfect sense for him to prioritise the chamber

But you are right with the Owens and Preist example. There's is an awful lot of arbitrary booking on weekly shows. Just booking on the fly.

But Bianca and Becky has a storyline spawned from a Summer Slam angle. It could be very well dropped but I highly doubt it.

Two women's matches in one Saudi show?

That'd be funny if every show didn't have only two womens matches.

Progress.
