10 WWE Booking Steps To Save The Members Of RETRIBUTION
8. Crown Mia Yim As A Women's Champion
For this entry to make sense, you have to presume Bianca Belair dethrones Sasha Banks of the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania. That's surely the avenue they're going with this, right?
Striking out on her own on SmackDown, Mia Yim should rack up some wins heading into August's SummerSlam pay-per-view. Defeating the likes of Chelsea Green, Liv Morgan, maybe even a more established name like Natalya or even Bayley would give 'The HBIC' everything she needs for a class SummerSlam championship showdown vs. 'The EST of WWE'.
A match that Yim should win.
The story is there from their time together in NXT and they have decent chemistry together that would allow for a marquee match on one of WWE's big-four pay-per-views. By this point, Bianca would have more than proven her worth within WWE to the point that she wouldn't even need a championship for everyone to recognise she's one of the greats of her generation.
Furthermore, Mia and Bianca both have something in common; they were two of NXT's greatest ever stars to never become NXT Women's Champion, thanks in part to the dominance of Shayna Baszler overruling their time in the black and gold brand. The same rule can't apply to the main roster, though.
