Nightmare: Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch, buoyed by their friendship on Tuesday nights, team up to make SummerSlam's Triple Threat into more of a handicap match. Carmella is then helpless to stop either babyface leaving with her SmackDown Women's Title.

In one fell swoop, her back-to-back pay-per-view wins over Royal Rumble-winning ex-NXT bad-ass Asuka mean nothing and she's left scrambling for a story to remain relevant post-SummerSlam.

Chances Of It Coming True: Fair.

Charlotte's inclusion may mean a twist in the tale. Don't be too surprised if Becky is found injured backstage and the attacker is revealed to be Flair later on; Charlotte's warped justification could be that she wanted to protect Lynch from failure, when she really just wanted a shot at Carmella herself.

Or, there may be tension between both babyfaces after teaming up on the champ. That'd leave an opening for Carmella to win. Let's hope so, because she can't go from lording it over Asuka (even with James Ellsworth's) help to losing so quickly.
