Royal Rumble is the next stoppage after WWE TLC.

#5 Raw's Women Championship match: Ronda Rousey (c) vs Nia Jax

'Rowdy' Ronda Rousey is the current Women's champion on the red brand.

Ronda Rousey will defend her Women's championship against Nia Jax at TLC on December 16. However, given WWE is pushing Nia Jax as an unstoppable heel on the red brand don't expect this feud to end anytime soon.

Also, given TLC would only be their first matchup, there's no way WWE is not stretching this feud till January next year. Going forward with this feud, WWE could also add Natalya's injury angle to stretch it until Royal Rumble.

Since Royal Rumble is the first landmark in the road to WrestleMania and it marks the beginning of new feuds and storylines for Mania, expect the feud to conclude in January next year.

Probable winner:

Ronda Rousey is in for a long stint as the WWE Women's champion of the red brand, and so expect her to defeat Nia at Rumble to conclude the feud.
