10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (Nov 28)
3. Charlotte Flair Beats Sasha Banks To Retain Her Title
One major drawback to the WWE brand extension is that the creative team don't have too many combinations to work with on each show. For example, Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks are an easy sell, meaning those writing Raw continually put them together.
Once again, Sasha Banks vies to become Raw Women's Champion by upsetting Charlotte on the program. WWE must be careful they don't change who holds that belt too much, otherwise it will start to devalue the championship itself. Right now, Flair is the best choice as champion, her heel persona gives babyfaces like Banks and Bayley something to chase.
During a tag-team match last week, Sasha made Charlotte tap out to the Bank Statement. This seems to suggest that Flair will successfully defend her title on Monday Night Raw this time around and roll on to Roadblock as champion.
Banks vs. Flair is always going to be an enjoyable match. Expect shenanigans to end this one, likely involving Dana Brooke, Bayley and the imposing Nia Jax along the way.
Whatever happens, it needs to be Charlotte who comes out with the title around her waist.
