10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (April 18)

6. Natalya Demands A Women's Title Rematch

At both Roadblock and on last week's Raw, Natalya and Charlotte showed they have wonderful chemistry during their matches. Natalya may not be the people's choice when it comes to challenging for the WWE Women's Title long term (that spot would likely go to Sasha Banks), but she is a suitable interim foe right now.

As he usually does for his daughter, Ric Flair was involved in the bout's finish last time around. As Charlotte was locked in a Sharpshooter, the 'Nature Boy' managed to draw a disqualification from the referee to save his little girl's title. That's a logical story, but it didn't make Charlotte look like a strong champion.

Maybe that's the point, but it conflicts with the story WWE are trying to weave about dominant female athletes when Ric Flair saved the belt. At the very least, it's something Natalya can run with on Raw, once again challenging for the title.

This time, she should assert, Flair is banned from ringside. If need be, the match can even take place at Payback, Natalya's last crack at the WWE Women's Title for now.
