The last year or so has seen WWE go crazy when it comes to booking 'first time' matches in the Women's division. The women's revolution has ploughed on despite questionable booking moves, although the Superstar Shakeup may bring about some much-needed changes.

WWE has resisted booking a women's ladder match so far, but it won't be able to resist forever. SummerSlam is a big enough stage for this first ever, and the only thing to work out will be which brand gets the match. The answer to that? Mix the brands up.

Whilst it is difficult to imagine WWE booking any 'first ever' women's match that doesn't include Charlotte Flair, the four-time Women's Champion may already have her hands full on this show. Becky Lynch has taken a backseat over the last few months, and the Lasskicker more than deserves her spot in this historic match.

Bayley and Sasha Banks are also no-brainers here, although the thought of The Boss in a ladder match is somewhat worrying. The final spot will go to Nia Jax, unless WWE has given up on her by this point.
