10 WWE WrestleMania 35 Card Predictions After SummerSlam 2018

10. SmackDown Women's Title: Becky Lynch (C) Vs. Asuka

Regardless of whether or not Becky Lynch has been miscast as a heel, WWE have committed to heading in this direction. 'The Lass Kicker' cemented the turn on SmackDown, ripping into Charlotte Flair and the WWE Universe with a blistering promo, then engaging in a pull-apart brawl. She was cheered at and chanted for throughout, suggesting a disconnect between the company and their fanbase, but there's plenty of time to overcome this.

The turn will ideally cement Lynch as her division's undisputed alpha. In this utopia, she'd become a permanent fixture in the title scene, and embark upon the kind of dominant run usually reserved for lesser heel performers. Challenger upon challenger would fall by her hand, leading towards a big showdown with the division's most dangerous babyface at WrestleMania.

Asuka is barely on television at the moment, and needs much rehabilitation after the Carmella feud. The rebuilding process will be long and arduous. Still, if WWE want to present a compelling SmackDown Women's Title fight at 'The Show of Shows,' a restored 'Empress of Tomorrow' is the most compelling option for Evil Becky.
