#1 Charlotte Flair wins the SmackDown Women's Title in any fashion

Charlotte Flair is the New York Yankees or New England Patriots of the WWE. She's always winning titles one way or another and if you are a fan of her or those teams, then it doesn't bother you. I'm admittedly a Patriots fan because I live in the state that the Pats call home, Massachusetts.

I understand the hate that comes with my team winning more titles than some teams have even had playoff appearances. It's why I started to dislike the Cowboys in the 1990s and the Yankees as well.

Flair has won eight titles on the main roster. She will some day eclipse her father's 16 title reigns because WWE is behind it and can control her title reigns. But title wins like her last one, right before the Show of Shows, do more damage than good to the women of the company. That win was done to throw another log on an already searing fire that was the main event of WrestleMania.

I wouldn't put it past WWE to have Flair beat Lynch so that they can call her a nine-time champion. It would be another step towards her record but it wouldn't surprise me either if she beats Lynch for the belt but then loses it right away due to a cash-in.

They'd still be able to claim that she won a ninth title but it would be a cheap way to do it. When the records aren't mentioned, it makes people worry about them less. When Rollins won the title but lost it on the same night due to a Dean Ambrose cash-in, it wasn't a huge deal that he lost it right away. He and the rest of the Shield all had a few title reigns.

Flair needs another title reign like the USA Network needs another pointless reality series like the Chrisleys or the upcoming one with some other Southern loud-mouth. Having Flair claim another belt simply to increase an already gaudy number would be counter-productive as there are several women who would benefit from beating Lynch more than Flair.

How big a win would it be if someone like Mandy Rose, Ember Moon or even Sonya Deville were the one to take the title off of 'the Man'? The fact is, Flair is already a star and someone else getting the honor would better serve the WWE.
