WWE Draft 2023: 10 Roster Trades That MUST Happen

8. Charlotte Flair (SmackDown > Raw)

Being brutally honest, Charlotte Flair's reign as a babyface SmackDown Women's Champion was f*cking terrible. The only saving grace is that she had that banger of a bout opposite Rhea Ripley at 'Mania 39 - that at least ended the title stint on a high, but it wasn't good overall.

Turning Charlotte heel again is WWE's best option, and they can help somebody else out at the same time: Bianca Belair. She's been running low on viable rivals for a while now, and her Raw Women's Title reign feels like it needs a kick up the arse if it's going to last on into the summer months.

Move Flair to Raw and book that match then.

Some fans will grumble about Charlotte getting another title shot, but she's still one of the best women WWE has on its books. Besides, Belair has been sending feelers out in the media about how she'd love this match, so it needs to happen sooner rather than later.
