First, let's say that Becky Lynch is the right champion. Now with that being said, I think we can also say that the second golden age the division experienced from SummerSlam last year to the Royal Rumble this year is over. The WrestleMania mess was the first warning sign, and Becky's victory was the last gasp.

Last night, Lacey Evans' push began in earnest. A rivalry with Becky Lynch is coming and while it's certain she won't win, it should be a rough one to watch and a dramatic comedown from the rivalries Becky has had with Charlotte, Ronda, and Asuka. Lacey Evans just isn't that good and hopefully, WWE will realize that sooner rather than later.

Elsewhere, Bayley was again humiliated, this time by an old foe, Alexa Bliss, whose long run at the top made for a stagnant, unexciting division. Is she being pushed back to title contention? If so, we can expect more of the same. We'll see what happens tonight on SmackDown, but the results so far aren't good.

We also need to know the situation with Becky's titles. Will they be unified or not? If not, how will one be separate from the other? Again, this confusion shows how last-minute the decision to add the SD title to the WrestleMania main event really was.

Either way, Becky is going to have her work cut out for her.
