#4 Becky Lynch will have two matches at Money in the Bank
It was confirmed last week that Becky will defend her Raw Women's Championship against Lacey Evans at Money in the Bank. This week we learned that Becky will be facing Charlotte Flair at MITB for the SmackDown Women's Championship, after Flair scored a win over Bayley.

This could mean that Becky might be losing either one or both championships at MITB. There is the unlikelihood that she retains both titles, however it would be unfair for the rest of the women's division.

So far, Becky Lynch has been a decent champion. She has clearly lost a bit of steam in her character though, and it's hurting her standing as a top star. Towards Survivor Series last year was when her character was at its peak. Unfortunately, since the start of 2019, she has started pandering and embracing the crowd too much.
She needs to go back to being that relentless, ruthless person that she was late last year. It is hard to tell at this point why her character narrative is in a slump, however maybe management felt that she had the support there to keep the momentum going.
Another possible reason may have been the amount of complaints over her brutal Twitter insults (which I personally feel added a layer to the character and was epic to watch). Many feel that the insults traded between Lynch and Rousey crossed the line. It helped build the storyline between them, even if there is real life heat there.
Charlotte is constantly receiving title shots over other women, which means we have to see another match between the duo. They do put on great matches, but this rivalry should not continue beyond MITB. Lynch and Flair have been feuding since Summerslam last year, making it quite old and tiresome now. WWE need to start building up other women to challenge for the titles.
I am looking forward to seeing the Lacey/ Becky match and hope they gel together in the ring. Lacey must not win the title yet as it's too soon. The best thing to do would be for Becky to drop the Smackdown Women's title to Charlotte Flair (even though she has held it enough times). Lynch can have a lengthy run with the Raw Women's title.
Becky needs to be on Raw permanently, as the Smackdown Women's division is stacked, while Raw's isn't exactly looking strong.
#3 Bayley making a change to her character?
Since Bayley is no longer in a tag team with Sasha Banks, she hasn't been the same lovable, smiling person that we are used to seeing. Bayley appears to have more of an edge about her character, as witnessed over the last two weeks. She looks unhappy, yet seems determined to get her singles career back on track.
We witnessed her get a win last week in a 8 person tag team match, when Bayley, Ember Moon, Asuka and Kiari Sane took on the IIconics and Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville. This week Bayley confronted Becky and Charlotte, stating that she wanted a chance to fight for the women's title. Charlotte and Bayley had a match to determine the Number One Contender to the Smackdown Women's Championship.
It was really good to see Bayley's new found aggressive attitude, as her character needed a change. WWE may even give Bayley a run as a heel soon, which many of us would be happy to see. Bayley getting right up in Charlotte's face when Charlotte mocked her before the match, was impressive to watch. Equally impressive was the match that they put on with each other, with Bayley keeping on Charlotte throughout the match. Bayley may have lost, however she came out of it looking like a million bucks.
The thing that is driving Bayley is that there's some real emotions in her character at the moment. Her frustration with management seems to be pushing her to take all of her aggression out in the ring. I like this as it could spell good things for Bayley's career, with her new found attitude.
We have seen moments of her aggression in NXT, as well as moments on the main roster. The WWE may begin to build her up for a Women's title run over the next few months. Let's hope something positive comes out of all this.
