#3 NXT Women's Championship Match: Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Charlotte

The Nightmare vs. the Queen
The Nightmare vs. the Queen

This match has been planned since the start of the year and it should not be on the same night as the RAW Women's Championship match. With Becky Lynch still maintaining top star status among the WWE women, that match should be saved for Night 2. This one, since Flair is still technically a RAW star, should be a part of Night 1.

Ripley is quickly becoming a star and it's too soon for her to lose the NXT Women's title. If she does lose it, it needs to be someone from NXT. Depending on what happens with the Women's Tag titles, this should once again stand apart from that bout with the Champion Kabuki Warriors calling Monday nights home.

All of the title matches cannot and should not be on the same night and I don't think things will fall that way. If management is worried about female star power being split, then this match makes more sense to occur on the first night of WrestleMania. The biggest match featuring women needs to be saved for the second night of festivities.

This being the second biggest female match of the PPV means it should take place before RAW's title match.
