10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (Jan 18)

7. Divas Title Match Made For Royal Rumble

As of right now, only the WWE Title 30-man match and Intercontinental Title Last Man Standing bouts have been confirmed for the impending Royal Rumble. Obviously, this isn't enough to fill out the card, and it makes sense to suggest the WWE Divas Title will also be featured. The most logical scenario is a one-on-one match between Charlotte and Becky Lynch. The women's scene in WWE is ravaged with injury right now, with Nikki Bella, Paige and Sasha Banks all out with various problems. Lynch challenging for the title would have made sense even if all those women were healthy, but it's essential now that the ranks are more thin than ever. On Raw, there's a very good chance that clash will be set for the annual January spectacular. WWE have a tendency to foreshadow pay-per-view results with their booking. Therefore, whomever comes out of Monday Night Raw looking the strongest will likely lose at the Royal Rumble. Charlotte deserves time to fully explore her new heel character whilst still champion, so Becky could get the upper hand on Raw.
