7 Superstars Paul Heyman needs to build RAW around after WrestleMania 36

#5. Shayna Baszler

Shayna Baszler isn't even two months into her RAW debut and she's already got the top spot in the Women's division at WrestleMania 36. Her dominance in NXT was no coincidence and she's carrying it forward to RAW with instant impact.

She became the only competitor in Elimination Chamber history to win by eliminating every single contestant. She's been built as the biggest threat to Becky Lynch's RAW Women's Championship reign - one that's close to completing a year.

Shayna Baszler represents fresh blood in the women's division and it's much-needed after Becky Lynch was seemingly running out of challengers. It appears as though in her entire reign, her only opponents were Lacey Evans, Charlotte Flair (for one match), Sasha Banks, and Asuka.

While that's a great list of opponents to have, perhaps now is the time for a change and what better stage than WrestleMania 36. We can imagine a situation where WWE waits for a show with a crowd for a title change, but the timing isn't bad. Shayna Baszler must be one of RAW's central stars post-WrestleMania.
