WWE SmackDown star Raquel Rodriguez could be the favorite to win the women's Money in the Bank match, according to Booker T.
Rodriguez was called up to the WWE main roster earlier this year, debuting on SmackDown in April. Since her transition to the blue brand, she has already had a world title shot when she faced Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women's Championship. Her performance in the bout was well-received by the fans.
On his Hall of Fame show, Booker T said that he has been impressed with Rodriguez and feels WWE should put the "rocket on her" as soon as possible.
"You know, Raquel right now, she's got something. She's got a really great look and I think something like that [winning the women's Royal Rumble match] would do wonders for her career, and put the rocket on her immediately. Someone like her, you don't want it to get too cold, you want to put the rocket on her and keep her hot. So, that's going to be my pick," said Booker T. [From 1:31:40 to 1:32:02]
