Speaking of the Raw Women's Title, that belt is currently held by Charlotte. Almost an 'alpha female' in the WWE landscape, the daughter of 'Nature Boy' Ric Flair has fought hard to stand on her own merits. Inside the ring, Charlotte is definitely one of the best women the company have under contract, but she only wants more.

In last week's article, Sasha Banks revealed her goal to someday appear on the cover of a WWE video game produced by 2K. Charlotte has the same aim, but also holds dear a much larger objective, one that would continue the legacy left by women like Chyna and Beth Phoenix.

Both of those females have competed in the annual Royal Rumble match, typically one that features 30 men striving for a shot at WWE's top prize. For Charlotte, entering that bout would represent a huge leap forward for women's wrestling, and she told Channel Guide Magazine that she plans on doing it within the next few years.

Wouldn't it be something if WWE booked Charlotte to win the match, then headline WrestleMania in a Women's Title encounter? It seems impossible, but women like Charlotte and Sasha Banks don't agree.
