As controversial as it may sound, SummerSlam might witness Charlotte Flair win another title. She has been one of the most consistent heels on RAW and would make for the biggest rival against Becky Lynch if she returns at the pay-per-view. Their history is more than enough to kickstart a vicious yet entertaining feud on the Red brand.

We have seen how Flair has made the most of every opportunity in recent times. She is clever enough to steal victory at the very last minute and add another title reign to her decorated resume. Charlotte Flair could capitalize on her opponents’ carelessness this Saturday.

Still, hopefully, WWE will only go for this booking if they plan a big confrontation between The Queen and Becky Lynch. Flair has never lost a match at SummerSlam, and this time may not be different.

At SummerSlam 2021, Rhea Ripley will have a shot at reclaiming the RAW Women’s Championship. She lost the title to Charlotte Flair at Money in the Bank and fought her way back into the championship picture. Based on her performances over the last few weeks, it is safe to say that Ripley has an equal, if not more, chance to win the title.

Although she started off as a heel on RAW, she quietly turned face during her feud with Charlotte Flair. It would be a surprising decision to put the title back on her but not one that can entirely rule out that possibility. That said, Ripley is not in immediate need of a title reign and could be involved in non-championship feuds on RAW after The Biggest Party of the Summer.
