Will CM Punk finally return to action in 2020?

#3 Shayna Baszler ends the Becky Lynch era

A huge push is in line for the former NXT Champion

Shayna Baszler dropped the NXT Women's Championship to Rhea Ripley last week, however, according to reports, the Queen of Spades is in line for a huge push on the main roster in the upcoming weeks.

Rumor has it that Shayna is the hot favorite to win the Women's Royal Rumble on January 26. Thus, one could see WWE setting up a blockbuster matchup between the former NXT Champion and Becky Lynch for the RAW Women's Championship at WrestleMania 36.

And rightfully so, as given how things unfolded between the duo leading up to Survivor Series, a high profile match at the marquee event of the year makes total sense.

Furthermore, given her stature and credibility, expect WWE to push Shayna as a legit force on the main roster. I would not be surprised if WWE plans to have the former NXT Champion create history by defeating The Man on April 5, 2020, to become the new RAW Women's Champion.
