10 Last-Minute WWE Backlash 2017 Rumours You Need To Know
7. Charlotte Joins The Welcoming Commitee
Since joining Smackdown in the Superstar Shake Up, the unthinkable has happened to Charlotte - she's actually become a babyface. A brief feud with Naomi saw the blue brand newcomer and the Women's Champion both attacked by The Welcoming Committee (Tamina, Natalya, and Carmella), creating a de facto alliance between them. Now that Becky Lynch is also aligned with the good guys, a six-woman tag has been scheduled for Backlash.
Charlotte hasn't been a babyface since late 2015, but that doesn't mean that this change is here to last. According to reports, some in the company are concerned that a babyface run doesn't play to Charlotte's strengths, and that there's money in a Charlotte-Naomi program. With that in mind, she could be turned heel again, and there's no sooner time to do it than by having her side with The Welcoming Committee at Backlash.
It sounds good in theory, but it would present a different problem. Of the six active women on the Smackdown brand, four would be in the same stable. For that reason alone, it looks like Charlotte won't be joining forces with The Welcoming Committee, and that she'll probably have to remain a babyface for the time being.
