Eek!

A portion of the wrestling audience hurled lung butter into nearby sick bags when Charlotte Flair beat Rhea Ripley to become NXT Women's Champion at 'Mania 36. Since then, Flair has become a target for those who think the company should be focusing on fresher faces like Rhea.

The sneaky byproduct of this is that WWE might want to heap further hate on Charlotte by having her win the Raw Women's Title from Ripley at Backlash too. They're blatantly heading for a Flair vs. Rhea rematch at some point, and Ripley will probs win that one, but beforehand? Yep, you could get another Charlotte title reign.

Although WWE can further Flair's ongoing storyline with power-hungry Sonya Deville on Mondays without putting the title on Charlotte, they might not want to. Instead, Vinnie Mac may reason that Ripley is better as the chaser, not the champ. That, of course, will tick off those who just want something new from the women's scene.
