#4 Equal status for both women’s championship feuds ahead of WrestleMania

It was surprising to see Royal Rumble 2022 winner Ronda Rousey pick Charlotte Flair over Becky Lynch as her WrestleMania opponent. Lynch had pinned Rousey in a controversial finish to become Becky Two Belts in the historic WrestleMania main event three years ago.

However, the Baddest Women on the Planet decided to settle an old score against The Queen instead.

Now, WWE would understandably be tempted to build the RAW Women’s Championship feud with the same intensity as its counterpart. Both Rousey and Bianca Belair won tough competitions to get their title shots at WrestleMania.

The Elimination Chamber might not feature 30 women like Royal Rumble. However, it is still a brutal competition that sets the right tone for a title feud between two superstars who share a compelling history.

The creative team would want an engaging storyline heading for each of the title feuds at a “stupendous” WrestleMania so that the fans are completely invested in the narrative.

Bianca Belair was the only one who could do that job while standing across from Becky Lynch at the moment. Thus, she needed that Elimination Chamber victory to pick up an old rivalry right from where it was left and will now take it upon herself to make this title bout as personal as it could get.
