4 Reasons why Becky Lynch will drop the Raw Women's Championship at Money in the Bank

Becky Lynch has had a tremendous 2019 so far. The Man has been literally on a rampant run and it will be right to say that the Irish Lasskicker has carried her form from 2018 to the present year. Becky first won the women's Royal Rumble which gave her the right to face Ronda Rousey at the Grandest Stage Of Them All. The Man indulged in heated segments with Rousey prior to their WrestleMania 35 clash and the intense storyline soon had a new face in it, Charlotte Flair - the woman who walked into 'Mania as the SmackDown Women's Champion.

WWE Creative has been spot on in making Lacey Evans a hot commodity on Raw as the recently recruited NXT Superstar wasn't put straight into action and was smoothly inculcated to the picture.

Lacey earned her chance to face Becky at MITB by defeating Natalya in a singles bout on Raw. The segments involving Lacey have been promising and by this time, WWE enthusiasts can sense that the company considers Evans as an essential part of their future plans.

A win over Becky Lynch in her first ever PPV event on the main roster will create quite a buzz and help establish Lacey Evans as the next big thing!

#3 Give both brands their respective Champions

SmackDown and Raw possess a substantal amount of talent and the number of superstars on either brand just tells us that the company considers both the shows pretty much equal.

The blue brand has the WWE Champion, whereas the Universal Champion resides on Raw. Since everything is being distributed equally, it sounds quite fair to have 2 different champions for these 2 different brands rather than have one woman hold 2 most important titles of a division.

Yes, WWE played a masterstroke in building Becky's journey on to WrestleMania 35 as The Man defeated Rousey and Charlotte to claim both the belts. As much heroic as that was, it will be a wise move to keep both the belts on their respective brands instead of making Becky hover from red to blue.

Lacey Evans capturing the Raw Women's championship fits in well considering the fact that it will allow Becky to devote all her attention to the blue brand.

WWE has been prioritizing the women's revolution for a long time and the recently concluded WrestleMania 35 just showcased how far the women have come in this company.

Becky Lynch won the main event at the grandest stage as she claimed the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships. The Showcase of Immortals turned out to be a spectacular event courtesy of this historic main event which comprised of three women who made history at MetLife Arena.

As much enthralling the WrestleMania 35 was, the post-mania period hasn't given us a lot to cheer about. The Women's division has rarely been enticing and it looks like a certain moment of surprise will just do the trick to spice up the Women's title picture.

Evans capturing gold will surely be one of the headlines simply because Becky Lynch is on a roll and Lacey will need something spectacular to beat the Irish Lasskicker. A title change will invite some drama which will surely captivate the avid followers of sports entertainment.

#1 Open the gate to aspiring female superstars on either brand

The magnitude of talent in the Women's locker room is immense

The women's division has been on the rise and it is right to say that the amount of talent in this specific division is utterly sensational. There are numerous names on the main roster that have champion written all over them and the skill set they bring to the table is nothing less than awe-inspiring.

A newbie like Lacey Evans winning the Raw Women's Championship will prove to be pretty inspirational and will surely make many female superstars believe that the day might not be far when they get their hands on the prestigious title.

One more reason why Becky dropping one belt seems a bit regarding for the rest of the locker room as the probability of having both titles on the line invites more opponents to vie for the same; As much talented as Becky is, it just won't be feasible for her to compete twice every other PPV. Becky dropping one belt shall invite new storylines, give birth to more chances for the women superstars and above all, two different champions!
