Speaking of The Man, she's running out of credible challengers at an alarming rate. Post Mania, and that unfollowable programme with the Baddest Woman on the Planet and The Queen, Becky has made mince meat of Vince's latest wet dream (Lacey, moonsault of the year contender, Evans) and will surely plow through WWE's only credible Canadian female who isnt called Trish. Her run has definitely been dominant and she's looked like a fighting champion throughout but since her coronation on the grandest stage shes not had that run defining match/angle, yet...but...

As we speak, Cris 'Cyborg' Justino has just walked out on the UFC. Dana even going as far to state that 'She is free and clear to go to Bellator or any of these other organizations'. There you have it. She'll be coming to WWE! Obviously, it seems Dana was alluding to other MMA promotions but why not? Cyborg seems keen to keep her own brand safe and looked after which will not be a problem if she brings in the dollar for the big E (no, not him). Being able to book your brand/character as a strong and marketable asset is something of a speciality within the WWE landscape, provided that you're shifting merch and drawing crowds.

She's a completely legit, badass, too, losing only once in UFC to someone Dana claims to be the 'best ever', Amanda Nunes. No shame there. You may as well start printing money with a Man vs Cyborg Mania match, too.
