After tonight's Raw, I am going to predict these are the most likely scenarios for the women's title picture.

If Brock/Reigns is title for title, the Night 1 main event I'd definitely guess is a WM35 rematch.

After tonight I wouldn't 100% rule out two triple threats main eventing and unifying the top titles. Roman (Universal champ) v Seth (WWE champ after EC) v Brock (RR winner) and Becky (Raw champ) v Charlotte (Smackdown champ) v Ronda (RR winner). They're all so intertwined it would be weird to leave one of them out of each match.
Sometimes they like Wrestlemanias to have a specific theme and they could beat you over the head with buzzwords/terms like "undisputed/unified", "double triple threat" and "unfinished business" due to 2015/19.

I don't think they are unifying the titles. If they wanted to run Brock/Roman in a title vs title match, they wouldn't have had Brock lose the title last Saturday. Also it bears repeating that FOX and NBCU want their own titles and own rosters. They will absolutely not approve of a unification match for any titles or any sort of roster merging. I do think that the women's matches will probably both end up being triple threats at this rate. Ronda/Charlotte is going to be utterly dreadful, so they probably need to insert Sasha for that. And then you have Becky/Bianca, which while it COULD be fine, it doesn't bode well that Bianca had significant struggles putting away Carmella tonight, and the audience was dead for almost everything she did. So I could see them inserting someone like Asuka as well, assuming she's back by then.

Regardless of who'll main event, I'm hearing a rumor that it's going to be Stupendous.

If it's title vs. title, it will most likely be like the triple threat women's main event from WM 36 where the winner gets both belts but they aren't unified.

They will absolutely not approve of a unification match for any titles or any sort of roster merging. This argument is pretty strong but I've been thinking of a way it could be done/sold; have the Women's title be the top title on SD and the Men's title for RAW. The draft would be to get a pool of new challengers each year. I don't think they'll do this but it's what I would.

FOX wants its own set of titles and roster. USA/NBCU wants its own set as well. They do not like to share that stuff. Remember, both networks grew a massive fit over the other getting a gimmick match, so WWE ended up giving both RAW and SD a Hell in a Cell match.

Ronda/Charlotte makes sense considering there is nobody left on SmackDown for Charlotte
I don't like the idea of Bianca Belair facing Becky Lynch. I'd like it to be anyone else, literally.

Ronda v Charlotte with Becky v Bianca being the other one is what I'm leaning towards currently.

Bianca looks weak after she lost to Becky at SummerSlam. Considering Becky confronted Bianca face to face, Bianca accepted the open challenge and got squashed, then was balling her eyes out after the match, how in the hell is Bianca supposed to be the sympathetic babyface in this feud? I said this before, I feel like WWE is trying to forcepush Bianca as the next mega superstar. I'd rather they pivot to someone like Liv Morgan, who has organically been getting strong reactions from the live audience.

Like whenever she opens her mouth, the audience just dies. It doesn't help that her ring work is pretty sloppy as well. She pretty much has "midcarder for life" branded on her after that disaster of a feud she had with Becky earlier this year and late last year.

Bianca got a decent reaction tonight but the matched sucked. It's hard to be up for that. But Bianca has consistently got good reactions. She literally got a big pop and EST chants at the Royal Rumble. The crowd is behind her. They just need to heat her up and give her direction.

I've just been hit with the horrifying realization, that Ronda & Charlotte are gonna have a promo segment together on SD...

Ronda had anti-charisma on Raw tonight. She was so bad she made Lita look like a great promo by comparison.
The fact that Sasha is getting shoved aside again seemingly is what annoys me most about this actually.

While she may need to work on her promo skills, I enjoyed her match with Becky at Day 1, which a lot of people on here were too harsh about.
