Here are my booking steps for Becky Lynch and the Smackdown Women’s Championship picture from now until Wrestlemania 35.
Step 1) Becky Lynch Is Stripped Of The Smackdown Women’s Title
With the recent injuries suffered by Becky Lynch, it is currently unclear how long that she will be out of action for. If it was up to me, I would have Shane McMahon and Paige strip Becky of the Title.
This makes sense for a couple of reasons. The first is that it will set-up some bigger things down the road for Becky (see the other steps). I actually think this would end up helping Becky’s crowd reaction as it will be another example of WWE trying to hold her down.
WWE should let Becky heal up over the next few weeks from her injury. We are going to need her back at 100%.
Step 2) Charlotte Flair Wins The Vacant Title At The TLC PPV
With the Title stripped from Becky, that means we have to find a new Smackdown Women’s Champion. My guess is that Shane and Paige will make a multi-person match for the TLC PPV to determine the new Champion.
I think that Charlotte Flair is going to end up winning the Title back. Looking at the current Smackdown roster, I think it makes the most sense for WWE to put the belt back on Charlotte. As you will see later on, Charlotte winning the Title will make sense in the grand scheme of things.
Step 3) Becky Lynch Returns At The Women’s Royal Rumble Match
I wouldn’t have Becky return until the 2018 Royal Rumble match. This accomplishes two things. The first is that it gives Becky a good chunk of time to fully recover from her injuries. It also sets her up for an insane pop at the Rumble when she returns.
The arena will explode when Becky’s music hits. This could make for one of the greatest crowd reactions of all time based on how hot Becky is right now.
I know it sucks losing Becky for the short-term but I think it would be worth it for the moment.
