People will not stop chewing fingernails over this until Saturday night rolls around, and with good reason. Build for Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley has been lacklustre. It certainly doesn't scream "WrestleMania main event"; not even apologists for the writers could claim they've done a bang-up job with the SmackDown Women's Title story.

It's a midcard attraction at best.

WWE might disagree, and the fact there's even discussion about Flair vs. Ripley going on last for night one is very, very worrying. Everyone knows that Kevin Owens teaming with Sami Zayn vs. The Usos is the right headliner for Saturday night. That isn't even really up for credible debate at this point.

If creative think babyface Charlotte vs. cool-as-f*ck Judgment Day "Mami" (and popular Royal Rumble winner) Rhea Ripley is going to play before cheers for Flair and boos for Rhea, then they're simply deluded. Please, please, please make the right call, guys.
