AEW took the wrestling world by storm after Double or Nothing. A large number of fans were waiting for a response from WWE. Vince McMahon's company offered a substandard edition of the red brand as it did not meet the expectations. However, SmackDown Live was a good show with some exciting segments and stupendous matches.

WWE already announced that Lacey Evans would face the SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley this week. With Charlotte Flair at ringside, Evans locked horns with The Hugger. Charlotte tried to distract Bayley but the result did not go in the favour of the Sassy Southern Belle.

Bayley pinned Lacey Evans in the squared circle but a major surprise took place after the bout. Lacey Evans attacked Charlotte Flair from behind but The Queen was quick to respond. The nine-time Women's Champion stood tall after taking down the Sassy Southern Belle.

The alliance was shortlived as it lasted a few weeks. Here, we'll discuss why Lacey Evans and Charlotte Flair broke their alliance on the blue brand this week.

Lacey Evans and Becky Lynch locked horns at Money in the Bank where The Man won the match to retain the RAW Women's Championship. The rivalry has become interesting and it has garnered the attention of WWE.

The feud began after WrestleMania when the Sassy Southern Belle attacked The Man. They had a great build-up as they brought the best out of each other every week. Evans is an impressive heel who creates nuclear heat. On the other hand, Becky Lynch is a fan favourite.

Despite being in the RAW Women's Title picture, Evans has been appearing on SmackDown Live through the Wild Card Rule. The Sassy Southern Belle and Charlotte Flair formed a team as both women collided with Becky Lynch at Money in the Bank. Since the alliance was broken this week, Lacey Evans could focus on her rivalry with Becky Lynch on RAW.

#2 A possible triple threat match between Charlotte, Bayley and Lacey Evans

Charlotte Flair won the SmackDown Women's Title at Money in the Bank but the celebration was short-lived when Bayley cashed in her Money in the Bank contract. Subsequently, Bayley also pinned Charlotte Flair on SmackDown Live last week. It is clear that Charlotte Flair could demand her rematch and The Queen is likely to be the next challenger for the Hugger.

Considering Lacey Evans and Charlotte Flair put their hands on each other this week, we could see a twist in this storyline. Considering Charlotte and Bayley collided several times in the past, it will not be a new feud for the fans. Hence, Lacey Evans could enter the title picture after breaking her alliance with Charlotte Flair this week. It will not be surprising if the three women face each other in a triple threat match at Stomping Grounds next month.


#1 To start a fresh feud between Charlotte Flair and Lacey Evans

Charlotte Flair has been on the main roster for four years, while Lacey Evans made her main roster debut this year. The Queen faced numerous women in her career but she never got an opportunity to face Lacey Evans.

A feud between the Queen and the Sassy Southern Belle could be a new rivalry for the WWE Universe. There is no denying that a large number of fans are exasperated with Charlotte's involvement in the title picture. However, Charlotte could be removed from the SmackDown Women's Championship picture if she starts a new rivalry with Evans.

Following a feud with Becky Lynch, Evans has great momentum. Evans could lift her stature if she starts a new feud with Charlotte and it has a gigantic possibility after the SmackDown Live episode this week.
