Charlotte Flair and Japanese superstar Asuka will clash in a WrestleMania 34 rematch on SmackDown Live tonight, ahead of the first ever triple threat women's Tables, Ladders and Chairs match also involving, Becky Lynch, for the SmackDown Live women's title.
WWE booked a tag team match, with Asuka and Charlotte Flair teaming up to face off against the duo of Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose, and in a shocking turn of events, Rose and Sonya defeated Asuka and Charlotte. The team of Asuka and Charlotte imploded during the match, which cost them the bout.
They earlier clashed for the SmackDown Women's Championship at the Grandest Stage of 'Em All in April. Flair ended The Empress of Tomorrow's long standing undefeated streak to retain her title at WM 34.
The two women will clash once again on SmackDown Live, and here are the 5 possible ways the match could end.
#5 Charlotte Flair wins clean, once again
When Charlotte ended Asuka's streak, it was affirmed that the WWE Creative considers Flair their best female superstar, and want her to be the face of the WWE women's division.
The 'Genetically Superior' female superstar has made history several times in WWE, and has been a part of the first ever Women's Hell in a Cell match, women's Ironman match, a Last Woman Standing match at the first ever all-Women's PPV Evolution, and also is the only woman to have held all types of women's championships.
It will not come as a shock to the fans if the WWE Creative team lets Flair go over the Japanese female superstar once again. They could have Asuka tap out to the same move, the figure-8 leg-lock, which broke her streak at WM 34.
#4 Becky Lynch interferes, destroys both Charlotte Flair and Asuka
Becky Lynch is the central part of this storyline, and may even be present near the ring during the match between Charlotte and Asuka tonight. Lynch suffered a concussion ahead of the Survivor Series PPV, and so she had been sidelined from in-ring competition for a while.
It seemed like the WWE would force Becky to relinquish her SD Live women's title due to her injury. However, the creative team surprised everyone by booking her in a triple threat tables, ladders, and chairs match at WWE TLC.
Because Becky is set to be a part of this match, she should play a role in the decision of this huge WM 34 rematch. WWE could simply have Becky attack both the superstars in the middle of the match, probably with a chair or a ladder, which would cause utter chaos in the ring.
#3 Asuka wins clean, makes Charlotte tap out to the Asuka Lock
It's no secret Asuka is no longer the superstar she once was. Suffering losses at the hands of Carmella and Charlotte had cost Asuka her position at the top of the division. However, the reaction she received from the crowd while Becky was choosing her replacement for Survivor Series impressed Vince McMahon, and The Empress is once again back in the title picture.
Becky and Flair have received very strong booking from the creative team, and Asuka currently looks like an outsider in the triple threat match. Having her go over the multi-time women's champion, Charlotte, would not hurt Flair's character, but it would definitely help Asuka become a relevant character once again on WWE TV. This win could also help Asuka avenge her WrestleMania defeat to Charlotte Flair earlier this year.
#2 Charlotte Flair snaps once again, uses a kendo stick and takes out both Becky Lynch and Asuka
It came as a shock to the fans when Charlotte suddenly turned face on joining SD Live in April 2017, as she had impressed the fans with her fantastic work as a heel on RAW. However, after a cold run as a face, Flair turned heel on Ronda Rousey by beating the hell out of The Baddest Woman On The Planet at Survivor Series.
Flair could repeat the same tonight on SD Live. After Asuka would push her to her limits, Charlotte would manage to escape the ring via the ropes only to take a kendo stick and destroy Asuka.
Becky Lynch would come out then to beat her opponents, but she too would be taken down by The Nature Girl who would stand tall at the end of the segment.
#1 Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville interfere, the TLC match becomes a fatal-5 way
Now, I know WWE has already announced a match between Mandy Rose and Naomi for SmackDown Live tonight, but the position of that match is unknown. The creative team have given the duo of Mandy and Deville a lot of TV time, and TLC would be the perfect platform for them to showcase their wrestling talents.

WWE could have Mandy Rose and Sonya take out Asuka and Flair with the help of chairs & ladders, and could also have the two put Asuka or Charlotte through a table to present a case so General Manager Paige adds them to the triple threat match, which would then become a fatal-5 way match.
