10 New Directions For WWE After Royal Rumble 2022
4. Sasha Banks Vs. Charlotte Flair
Saturday's Rumble was a bit of a damp squib for Sasha Banks. She returned to a booming response on last week's SmackDown and attacked Charlotte Flair. Then, in the 30-man match, she entered at #1 and lasted a measly 10 minutes before being chucked out by Queen Zelina.
That cleared the way for Ronda Rousey to win and make the Raw Women's Title a Rumble focal point over the SmackDown version, but WWE will still need a decent challenger for Flair at 'Mania. The good news? There are few better choices on the market than Banks.
Surely she, like Lita before her, went after Charlotte for a reason.
If WWE burns through Lita vs. Flair in Saudi, then expect Sasha to pop up as Charlotte's next foe. This is a feud that creative keep coming back to, and they always will until they build some fresh stars. Or, they might add in another established one...
