10 Early Predictions For WWE WrestleMania 34

8. Bayley Vs. Sasha Banks Vs. Alexa Bliss - RAW Women's Title Match

The problem with WWE's Women's divisions is that both are criminally thin. Repetition is inevitable - as is WWE burning through every viable pay-per-view dynamic months before WrestleMania takes place.

The best match WWE could present on RAW, post Superstar Shake-Up, is a recently-turned Sasha Banks Vs. Bayley. Even that, as welcome as it would be, is a retread of something that only happened two years ago and is bound to happen sooner rather than later. Beyond that, Bayley Vs. Alexa Bliss has potential - but the first match of a presumed multi-show series is scheduled for eleven months prior to 'Mania 34.

Emma is nearly on the level of Bayley and Banks, but it's difficult to imagine WWE going all in on a performer they have yet to show much faith in on the biggest show of the year. Dana Brooke isn't happening. Nia Jax's rate of improvement is slower than the middle portion of a Triple H match. The impending Women's tournament might alter the complexion of both divisions, but bar Io Shirai, none of the mooted field stand out as a potential game-changer.

All of which means the only realistic and vaguely fresh option is to throw the show's top three performers in a token Triple Threat bout.
