#1. Bianca Belair - A win for bragging rights at Extreme Rules

Bianca Belair will have one of the biggest matches of her career at Extreme Rules. She will face the SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch. At SummerSlam 2021, Belair was originally scheduled for a WrestleMania rematch against Sasha Banks.

However, that didn't work out for unknown reasons and Banks was replaced at the last minute by the returning Becky Lynch. The Man quietly turned heel and beat Belair in less than half a minute - a decision that still bewilders fans over a month on.

Bianca Belair was the pillar of the SmackDown Women's division for over four months in 2021, so to have Lynch topple her in that manner seems bizarre. However, WWE has handled Belair well since and at Extreme Rules, she will have a proper match against The Man.

It could be argued that Bianca Belair desperately needs the win at Extreme Rules - more so than anybody on this list barring Finn Balor. This match will have the SmackDown Women's title on the line, but it will also be about bragging rights.

With that said, the chances of Becky Lynch retaining at the pay-per-view seems far higher.
