10 Burning Questions For WWE Backlash 2018

10. Is Carmella A Flash In The Pan?

Last summer, Carmella technically became the first woman to win an all-female Money in the Bank ladder match when her flunky James Ellsworth retrieved the briefcase.

For months, Carmella floundered on the SmackDown roster, never being little more than a pest who threatened to cash in her briefcase. It seemed like there wasn’t any big plan for her beyond capturing the briefcase.

And then, she cashed in on a beaten-down Charlotte on the SmackDown after WrestleMania, winning the title. But does anyone take her seriously as a threat, especially with a roster populated by Asuka, Charlotte and Becky Lynch?

If Carmella retains, then WWE might have some plans for her. If Charlotte defeats her, then we know she won the title just to have a successful cash-in and pay off the briefcase.
