5 directions for the Charlotte Flair-Sonya Deville alliance on WWE RAW: In-ring return, possible dream match?

Is this the beginning of something new?
Is this the beginning of something new?

Last week on WWE RAW, Sonya Deville lifted Charlotte Flair's indefinite suspension and allowed her into the arena. On the episode of WWE RAW the week before last, Charlotte Flair beat down referee Eddie Orengo after she lost her match to Asuka.

The Queen's attack on referee Orengo didn't sit well with Adam Pearce, fining her $100,000 and suspending her indefinitely.

When Sonya Deville welcomed Charlotte Flair to the ring last week, Deville said that Pearce's decision felt rushed and that he hadn't given Flair a chance to speak her mind.

While addressing her actions from the previous week's episode of WWE RAW, Flair said that she had a lot of time to think and finally apologized to the referee.

When Sonya Deville and Charlotte Flair made their way back to the gorilla position, they were greeted by a dumbstruck Adam Pearce. He questioned Deville's decision and Deville replied that she was looking for him and apologized for her actions. Pearce didn't buy a word she said and walked away.

It looks like WWE is interested in delving deeper into a storyline that sees a partnership between these two WWE Superstars. Here are five possible ways the Sonya Deville and Charlotte Flair storyline can unfold on WWE RAW.


#5 Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville become contenders for the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles on WWE RAW

It is safe to say that the WWE Women's Tag Team division is void of competition. While the company has tried pairing many WWE Superstars to possess a legitimate threat to Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax's WWE Women's Championships, none of them have really done so.

An alliance between Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville may be just what the WWE Universe has been waiting for. The two WWE Superstars are great performers and are people fans love to watch wrestle.

Them coming together to face the current WWE Women's Tag Team Champions may pull fans into believing that the Women's Tag Team division isn't dead.

#4 Sonya Deville becomes Charlotte Flair's heel manager

Last week on WWE RAW, Sonya Deville made a heel move by allowing one of the biggest heels back into the arena while she was suspended.

You may think that Charlotte Flair is good enough to hold her own and really doesn't need a manager to speak for her or do her dirty work. But with Sonya Deville on her side, Flair's character may only deepen with time.

Such a combination will help garner a lot of flak for Charlotte Flair and help WWE Superstars she competes against get cheered on by fans.

#3 WWE RAW and WWE SmackDown get a heel official in Sonya Deville

For a long time now, neither WWE RAW nor WWE SmackDown has seen a true heel as a General Manager or backstage official. Since there are no separate managers for each show, having someone who interjects and causes problems for Adam Pearce's decisions will spark some form of controversy on every show.

Sonya Deville seems apt for such a role. Her siding with Charlotte Flair brings back memories of when Eric Bischoff was General Manager of WWE RAW. Bischoff frequently made decisions that benefitted Triple H, who was the show's top heel at the time.

The pairing between Bischoff and Triple H garnered a lot of heat against them and maybe that's what WWE needs right now.

#2 Sonya Deville and Charlotte Flair could form a heel faction on WWE RAW

WWE Superstars Sonya Deville and Charlotte Flair certainly look a class apart together. What better way to capitalize on such a situation than to add a couple more WWE Superstars to the mix?

We all saw what the formation of The Hurt Business did for all four members. This would be an ideal time to get a few NXT Superstars to make their WWE RAW main roster debut and form a faction with Sonya Deville and Charlotte Flair. Who do you think should grab this opportunity?

Horsewomen vs Horsewomen?
Horsewomen vs Horsewomen?

It may seem like Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville are on the same page on WWE RAW for now. But one shouldn't be surprised if the duo implode and throw hands at one another somewhere down the line.

With Becky Lynch possibly returning any week and Ronda Rousey not putting a return to WWE completely off the table, the alliance of Flair and Deville may finally lay seeds for the Horsewomen of WWE vs the Horsewomen of MMA dream match.

Sonya Deville is someone who has had formal MMA training. Her aligning with Rousey, Baszler, Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir wouldn't be seen as something unacceptable by the WWE Universe.

We could get a 5-on-5 Women's Tag Team match with someone like Asuka or Bianca Belair possibly joining the Horsewomen of WWE.
