Finally, at #1 on the list, we have none other than Charlotte Flair. Charlotte is currently the most decorated female in the WWE due to her success on the main roster. She has held 7 women's championships so far which makes her one of the most established superstars on Smackdown Live.

We have recently seen Charlotte embroiled in a rivalry with Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey, but that doesn't change the fact that Charlotte would be the perfect superstar to face Asuka in a rematch from WrestleMania 34.

At WrestleMania 34, we saw Charlotte defend the Smackdown Women's Championship against Asuka in a marquee match. Asuka was undefeated at the time, and she was super-hot due to the fact that she had won the first ever women's Royal Rumble match at Royal Rumble 2018.

Charlotte went onto beat Asuka to break her undefeated streak, and it was a moment that shocked many fans in the arena that night. However, Asuka has regained her momentum as the current champion. Becky Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey is the potential main event for Wrestlemania, so seeing Asuka attempt to avenge her first ever loss to Charlotte would be great to see.

Most importantly, the rivalry between Charlotte and Asuka needs to be taken to the next level. The build-up to their first match was based on respect, whereas the build-up to the TLC triple threat match at TLC 2018 was full of more intensity, with Becky Lynch added to the mix.

We could even see Charlotte turn heel, which wouldn't be so bad as she is definitely the most effective when competing as a heel. Take Survivor Series 2018 for example, when we saw Charlotte batter Ronda Rousey with a kendo stick. This makes a potential match between Charlotte and Asuka at WrestleMania the best possible option on this list.
