5 WWE Superstars who could eliminate Charlotte Flair from the Royal Rumble

2) Bayley in Royal Rumble 2022

This edition of the Women's Royal Rumble Match has already seen 20 participants being announced. Bayley remains the last possible surprise return that fans can expect for the event.

The Role Model was WWE's MVP for much of the previous year or two, and many fans are anxiously awaiting her return.

Bayley's arrival in the Rumble sets up some intriguing possibilities. Not only could the longest-reigning SmackDown Women's Champion in history win the titular stipulation, but she could toss her long-time rival over the top rope.

Bayley's evolution into her current persona started against Charlotte Flair when she shed her old Hugger skin. Revisiting this feud for WrestleMania just makes a lot of sense.

1) WWE Hall of Famer Lita in the Royal Rumble 2022

Here's one rivalry with Charlotte Flair that has been teased during the buildup to the Rumble.

WWE Hall of Famer Lita returned on the January 7th episode of SmackDown. The Queen confronted the former Team Extreme member and berated her.

Lita responded with a Twist of Fate to lay out the SmackDown Women's Champion.

Lita vs. Charlotte Flair is a cross-generational dream match that many fans have always imagined. The two superstars are excellent in-ring performers who have put on countless classics.

Lita making one final run at reclaiming championship gold is a story that any fan can get into. The magic they could create is unreal. Lita may be the dream opponent Charlotte really needs right now.
