2. WrestleMania XXXIII

Regardless of what direction the writers want to go for WrestleMania XXXIII, there are a finite number of options for a Raw Women’s Championship match, so that limits what actually could happen.

Bayley could emerge from a feud with Charlotte as the #1 contender to the title and get a one-on-one match against her friend Sasha Banks. Or a bout could be inconclusive and set up a triple threat with Charlotte, Bayley and Sasha. There also is always the possibility that Nia Jax could float back into the picture.

But for the sake of this booking exercise, a one-on-one match between Sasha and Bayley would probably work best, setting up the Huggable One for a Mania moment by defeating Sasha. Interestingly enough, if Sasha were to hold the title until WrestleMania, she would be the longest-reigning champ in that title’s short history.
