I know that everyone (myself included) was hoping for Becky to win the Rumble and go on to challenge Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania. The story practically wrote itself. They also could have added Charlotte for the Triple Threat match and I don't think anyone would have batted an eye. However, with Becky going on to challenge Asuka at the Rumble, I am lost at how they get to Ronda vs. Becky. If they were creative, they could do it, but they are not.

Is there a way we can copy paste the last pages of the SD Thread here? Because Boi, it was a long discussion. but basically it is still possible,but this telegraphs Charlotte winning the Rumble pretty hard. Maybe a the end Flair can come out and raise her hand to boos

Lynch can still be in the Rumble if she loses to Asuka. Like, Sasha Banks is fighting Ronda Rousey for the other belt, and she's actually still officially in the damn Rumble despite the fact she could possibly enter it as a reigning champion.
I mean, I get it, you've seen them stuff up things like this way too many times... But, dammit, why do we have to be angry NOW before we know one way or the other that she's 100% not in the Rumble? There's enough past history of talents doing double duty that it can't be ruled out until... well, usually when #30 comes out, but it'd be #29 in this case.

Or #30 if Becky beats the crap out of Carmella backstage and takes her spot.

I figure the Asuka match ends inconclusively. Why not just have Carmella get that shot so Asuka can finally get that win back? The frustrating thing to me is that after talking about no more automatic rematches the Rumble card is basically a bunch of rematches, or the weeks leading up to it have been rematches. I guess Becky and Styles didn't get auto rematches but instead won token #1 contender matches, but it's still the same stuff. Same deal with Rollins/Ambrose.

Somebody somewhere is going to run with this as gospel now, and get unreasonably angry on Twitter or Reddit if Becky comes out at a number other than 30.

It's possible Charlotte could cost Becky the match with Asuka and Becky could win the Rumble by attacking Charlotte and stealing her spot. They could then do Becky vs. Charlotte again at Elimination Chamber for the WM spot with either Ronda attacking them both again or Becky winning straight up (depends on what they decide for WM)

I just posted this in the Rumble thread on this subject
Well it kind of makes sense (Becky vs Asuka) because Becky was in the Rumble last year, so it makes sense to let Charlotte do it this year, you can still add Becky to the Mania match as a Triple Threat, in fact it gives the fans more chance to get behind Becky to have her added to the match.
Charlotte wins the Rumble, chooses Rousey and then somehow Becky fights her way into the match, Becky then gets her moment by winning the title at Mania.
Who the hell thats leaves for Asuka to face (at Mania) though is anybodies guess.
This Rumble card is strong as hell though.

I’d be shocked if the WM35 main isn’t a Rousey/Charlotte/Becky triple threat for the Raw Women’s Title.
As far as Asuka, if she goes into Mania as champ than I see either Jax or Sasha winning an Elimination Chamber for a title shot.

In a major swerve, Sasha beats Rousey and Becky beats Asuka. Rousey enters herself into the Rumble, wins and chooses Becky as her opponent. Meanwhile, Asuka wins the Elimination Chamber and challenges Sasha.

Sasha vs. Asuka would be cool though, their Raw match last year was crazy.

Asuka vs Sasha Banks Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte vs Becky Lynch
They sound like the best two possible matches you can do, then do a big shake up of the rosters post Mania.

I don’t want Charlotte anywhere near Becky and Ronda to be honest.
And I say this as a fan of hers. I think Charlotte is probably the best women’s wrestler on the roster but the hype was always about Becky and Ronda. Nobody wants Charlotte in there.

If they pull the trigger on the Women’s Tag belts going into WrestleMania, I think Banks would probably be tied up in that scene. I just literally thought that as I posted it. They could do a Womens Tag Battle Royal for the Tag Titles at Mania which will get all the Women onto the card. 1. Bayley & Banks 2. Riott Squad (one will have to be outside) 3. Nia Jax & Tamina 4. Mickie & Alicia 5. Natalya & . (Maybe a surprise Beth Phoenix appeareance) or failing that the only person left would be Dana Brooke 6. The IIconics 7. Lana & Naomi 8. Mandy & Sonya 9. The Bellas . 10. Trish & Lita . ?? That leaves us with Zelina Vega (manager) Carmella (manager if R Truth gets on the card) Alexa (injured/host) and Ember Moon (Asuka's challenger??)

- Ronda vs Becky vs Charlotte for the Raw's Women's Title - Asuka vs every other SDL woman for the SDL Women's Title - Sasha and Bayley vs Nia and Alexa for the Women's Titles
I'd be surprised if this isn't where we're heading.

Charlotte costs Becky vs Asuka.
Then one of two things happens:
1) Becky enters the Rumble and tosses Charlotte (and Nia for good measure) en route to winning, and we get Becky vs Ronda at Mania. 2) Charlotte wins, but after costing Becky the Title earlier, Becky is given a match with her where if she wins, she gets Charlotte's Rumble spot. They draw, and because of that, they each get it. Ronda vs Charlotte vs Becky at Mania.
