#2 Natalya (SmackDown Women's Champion) vs Alexa Bliss (RAW Women's Champion)
Natalya was the reigning SmackDown Women’s champion and was geared up to represent the blue brand’s women’s division against RAW’s champion Alexa Bliss. The chief reason the creative team would have altered this match-up was that they already had a heel vs heel (The Miz vs Baron Corbin) match involving both the brands’ champions.

Another heel vs heel competition would’ve bored the audience. So, the writers booked Natalya to lose her title just nights before the PPV to none other than Charlotte Flair after an epic match on SmackDown.
