Charlotte Flair is unquestionably the "Queen" of the WWE Women's division. Six-time and current defending Champion, Flair is, without doubt, the most successful and greatest Women's Champion of the current era.
The question is, whether anyone can take that crown from her? This countdown looks at five women who match up well with Flair and could potentially usurp her as the number one female in WWE.
#5 Asuka
Asuka has already had one high profile match with Charlotte Flair of course, at Wrestlemania 34 earlier this year.
Virtually all onlookers expected the undefeated Japanese superstar to beat Flair on that show. However, it didn't happen.
Asuka, instead lost by submission, ending her near three year unbeaten streak. It's fair to say she hasn't been the same since after losing her aura in a comical feud with Carmella and James Ellsworth post- Wrestlemania.
However, her encounter with Flair at Wrestlemania was an instant classic; one of the very best women's matches WWE has produced on the main roster.
Asuka undoubtedly is more than a match for Flair. She just needs some character development and a sustained period of rebuilding before she takes another crack at her. There's a good chance that, at the next time of asking. she can be successful.
#4 Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch is set to collide in a blockbuster feud with Charlotte Flair after turning heel on her following their SummerSlam match which also included then-Champion Carmella.
After Flair defeated her and Carmella, a jealous Lynch took out her frustrations on the new champion.
An angry Lynch looks to be every bit the match for Flair, and the talented former Smackdown World Champion could well be the one to dethrone her as Champion.
Lynch has defeated Flair before, most recently in June, after Flair had lost her title to Carmella. Lynch has the tools to defeat the "Queen". Flair will have her work cut out when they clash again.
#3 Nia Jax
Nia Jax has faced Charlotte Flair before but not since Jax really blossomed as a singles performer in late 2017.
Jax, now a former World Champion in her own right and one of the few females to be both bigger and stronger than Flair, there is little doubt she will be a considerable test for her if they were to clash again.
It may be sooner rather than later. Jax is hungry to return to the top of the food chain. Would Flair be able to stop her?
#2 Trish Stratus
In what would be a blockbuster women's match for the ages, the finest female Western wrestler of her era, Trish Stratus would make the perfect opponent for the finest female Western wrestler of the current era.
Stratus, the former 7-time Champion is only one reign ahead of Flair's quest to break her record, with Flair now in her sixth title run.
Now Stratus is back, could their paths cross in a singles encounter? Quite possibly. Stratus has a date with Alexa Bliss at October's all-female Evolution event. If Stratus develops a taste for action once again, why wouldn't she want to test her prowess against the very best WWE has to offer today?
Stratus would be a formidable opponent for Flair in would surely be a classic encounter for the ages.
#1 Ronda Rousey
If the rumours are to be believed, then Charlotte Flair is on a WrestleMania collision course with Ronda Rousey.
It may also be the main event, which would be a welcome and historic event at the 35th instalment of the biggest show of the year.
No one would be a more formidable and dangerous opponent for Flair than the former UFC Bantamweight Champion.
Rousey has taken WWE by storm, crushing everybody put in front of her. Most recently at SummerSlam, she squashed 5-time Women's Champion, Alexa Bliss in under 5 minutes.
Bliss was no match for Rousey. Would Flair fare better?
Flair defeated Bliss herself at last year's Survivor Series and is taller and just as imposing an athlete as Rousey.
However, Rousey, a former Olympic medallist is on a different level to any competitor she has faced before. No doubt, Rousey will be the ultimate test and the best match for the "Queen". It shouldn't be long before we find out which of the two is the best that WWE has to offer.
