8. Natalya Gets Charlotte In The Sharpshooter

As Ric Flair and Charlotte celebrated in the ring, Natalya would once again strike. Brawling back into the ring, Emma, Dana Brooke, Becky Lynch and Paige would cause the champion to become distracted. Ideally, they could even 'accidentally' bump into Flair, taking him out of the game temporarily.

Only then would Natalya seize Charlotte and lock her up in the Sharpshooter. Tapping frantically, the WWE Women's Champion would cry out for her dad to come to her aid. Unfortunately for Charlotte, Ric would be wiped out on the outside of the ring, reeling from taking a bump through the ropes.

Unable to rely on daddy dearest, the visual would once again be that Natalya has Charlotte's number when Ric isn't around. Not only did the champ need his help to beat the challenger, but she was helpless to fight off the Sharpshooter once Natalya had it locked in.

Once again, it'd be imperative for the announcers to hype this up, because Flair's absence from ringside is the focal point of the Submission Match at Extreme Rules.
