5 Possible main events for WWE SummerSlam 2019 after Extreme Rules

#3 Becky Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey

With just four weeks to go until SummerSlam, Becky Lynch has been left without an obvious challenger for the Raw Women’s Championship following her latest win over Lacey Evans at Extreme Rules.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

On the Raw roster, nobody from the women’s division has built up enough momentum to be deemed worthy of facing Lynch in a high-profile match at a ‘Big 4’ event, while the only major female star without a storyline on SmackDown Live right now is Charlotte Flair, but fans have seen that match dozens of times.

That only really leaves three possible challengers for “The Man”:

Beth Phoenix (she has had back-and-forth Twitter spats with Lynch since April, leading to speculation about a match)
Ronda Rousey (currently inactive due to a broken hand but rumored to be on her way back)
Sasha Banks (absent since WrestleMania but destined to be involved in a big storyline upon her return)

Out of those three options, the Rousey match is the most worthy of being a main event, especially after Lynch insulted “The Baddest Woman on the Planet” yet again in recent media interviews.
