Yep, I agree. Ronda needs to lose not only for Becky but for her character as well. After all she's said and done her walking out of WM with a win's just not something that anyone wants to see. Nobody benefits from that besides her. Yeah, she needs the win more than Ronda or Charlotte do. Even if Charlotte's the one who loses the match, it'd be completely fair to jump on Becky like we did Joe for talking shit and not winning. Yep. Becky losing here would make her another Gargano and well, you saw how that story played out. The second half of that match last night excluded, it's just not a good direction for a babyface. Let alone the fact that even Becky said in an interview yesterday that she felt like the women might not main event due the fact that the storyline's been going on for so long with so many twists and turns which forced them to lose momentum. If she's outright saying that then lord just imagine if Becky loses. I don't wanna see her lose.

I can see the argument that since it's the first women's main event it has to be special, however the main events of late have been far from sending the crowd home happy or great matches. Last year was Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar where for once most agreed Reigns should go over and he failed. Roman Reigns vs a broken down Undertaker was the year before that and a real wet fart of a main event. Go back a few more years you had Miz beating John Cena thanks to interference from the Rock (though that match was marred by concussion as well). That's just in this era. Go to some older ones and there are some truly iffy main events. Often it's what makes the biggest spectacle. However, it's bugged me a bit that the women's apparently has to be awesome in the ring and check off a bunch of other things that the men don't have to. Maybe after this one if the women ever main event again it'll be treated like other main events. There’s a first time for everything. There was a ton of pressure on he first Mania to succeed. Hogan and Mr. T had to beat Piper and Orndorff in part to make that successful. Mr. T was there for his fame more than anything else. Much like Ronda but Ronda’s clearly had more training. Just saying there are some parallels there. I think the fact that it’s an eight hour show isn’t being considered strongly enough here. That is an extremely long time for so many people to be sitting there watching wrestling. No commentary either. Just watching whatever WWE throws out there for eight hours. I don’t care how good the show could possibly be. That’s too long. I think they want to make sure they send them home happy after all of that. I know that I would. Eight hours is long but a solid chunk of the crowd likely won't be there for the whole thing. It's kind of like a concert where half the stadium is empty until just before the headline act comes on. It won't be quite that extreme but I wouldn't be surprised if the stadium has a lot of empty spaces for the pre-show at least. That cuts a fair amount of time down off the show. It will probably still be tough for some audience members but at least they know what they're getting into. Yeah I've heard reports saying that no one's sure if Becky's winning but it's not due to Charlotte. It's purely due to Ronda. If Ronda says then Becky's not winning yet since Becky's going to "send Ronda off" but if Ronda's leaving then yeah Becky's winning. That's why Becky keeps saying she's going to send Ronda out of the company. Kind of ironic how Ronda, that new shiny toy last year that everyone loved, ends up being the one element that can give a nightmarish result. Staying or going, Ronda needs to be either pinned or submit here. That's what this has built to but even if she stays and loses, this is potentially awesome for her character. Here is an actual roadblock for her and a reason for some development. It could end up serving Ronda greatly.

Ronda needs to be pinned or submitted by Becky from a story conclusion regardless of what Ronda's doing next. The issue is that we know how this company works. Lesnar's whole situation is a great example of it. Rather than letting someone beat Lesnar and then Lesnar goes on "I want the title and I'll go through you bums to get it" quest they're doing the "he holds the title until he leaves" thing which we've seen too many times.
Neville the perfect example of what they need to do. His entire arc from the King of the Cruiserweights to The Fallen King was brilliant.

Yeah, and even if Ronda stays, who doesn't want to see her lose to Becky and then whine like an entitled brat on Raw about wanting a rematch when there are supposedly no more automatic rematch clauses? Ronda being removed from the building in an over the top fashion like the brawl last week sounds like gold to me. LET US BE HAPPY!

I want to see fake security guards get beaten down by Ronda until Ronda gets handcuffed and taken away whining. That's simple booking.

It's the dumbest choice possible No, the dumbest possible choice is for a cross-dressing Brooklyn Brawler to get inserted into the match at the last minute and winning. I would laugh so hard if that happened. ...someone get Vince on the line. PRONTO.

I can't even pretend to think otherwise anymore, after she got the place chanting for her at the damn HOF ceremony they have to strap The Man up.

I think it's possible that Seth and Kofi lose. But it's 99.9% that Becky wins. WWE is stupid, but they're not that stupid.

When it comes to WWE booking: expect the worst while hoping for the best. But always expect the worst.

This company is stupid. Of the three Becky, Rollins, Kofi. One of them is losing to continue the "story" Becky could possibly lose. In the eyes of the WWE she is over no matter what, they believe Charlotte needs it more because she still hasn't fully connected with the audience as a whole since her debut. The woman herself admitted it about Mania 32 on why she won that triple threat. Sasha was was SUPER over at the time and was easily the one that should have won. She said she needed the win more because she was not connecting well with the audience and she needed that accolade to get her name furthee since the other two women were more over than her in that match, mainly Sasha Banks.
Yeah she has her fans but they are a minority compared to Becky fans. Sasha and Bayley connect more with the audience than Charlotte. She has Flair stigma and it will never go away.
Kofi is definitely winning with all the teasing the last three months. Seth needs the win badly especially after they let last years Rumble winner lose their Mania match.

Let's think about this. When was Becky's last big win? Evolution in OCTOBER. Since then, she's gotten her face exploded by Nia Jax, lost her title at TLC, tapped out to Asuka. She won the Rumble, but came out at 31 basically and eliminated all of 2 people. Hardly an impressive showing, and really who even remembers it. She's done nothing since. She's over because of her mic ability and grasp of social media. She actually needs the win to keep any sort of credibility.

Not only that but the only reason she eliminated Charlotte was because Charlotte broke the number one rule of the Royal Rumble. Never charge someone near the ropes. A lot has been made about Becky winning on one leg but really, Charlotte beat herself in the Rumble.

I want to say no, but they went to a country for a show after one of the country's leaders was exposed as literally having people murder a man even with almost everyone saying no.

She's over because of her mic ability and grasp of social media. She actually needs the win to keep any sort of credibility. You can read it that way, but at the same time, the parts of the booking that might be seen as undermining her just get retconned or erased from the record. No one talks about the way she won the Rumble, just that she won the Rumble. Asuka tapping her out was forgotten so fast that they left it out of an Asuka hype video package a fortnight later. Plus she's also had numerous matches and segments to make her look strong, like her clowning John Cena for ten minutes, punking out Nia Jax backstage at TLC, that SDL episode opening with her drinking Heavy Machinery's gross concoction with the New Day wearing Becky shirts (its still hilarious to me that Road Dogg wore one when he appeared on Raw), the triple threat qualifier she won in January, or beating up Charlotte and Ronda with her crutch at Elimination Chamber, or giving Charlotte a Disarmher the night after getting beaten up by Ronda while also on crutches, or even easily winning the Beat the Clock challenge on Raw the other week despite Charlotte attacking her. You can argue some of these are minor, but I think it has to be acknowledged that Becky's booking has been highly protected for a long time even with some of the attempts to make her an 'underdog'.

I'm still predicting that Becky Lynch will be the one that gets booked by WWE to win tonight's main event triple threat match. I think that Becky will be winning this match by forcing Charlotte Flair to tap out.
Ever since Becky won the 2019 Women's Royal Rumble match, I've fully expected WWE to book her to win at WrestleMania 35. I think that Ronda Rousey will be leaving WWE immediately following WrestleMania 35. I'm not sure if Ronda will ever be wrestling in WWE again at any point after WrestleMania 35.
