5 things WWE must do after The Royal Rumble pay per view

The road to WrestleMania 36 kicked off on Sunday Night with The Royal Rumble pay per view, and while the company did already answer a lot of questions, they also created a lot more as well.

In fact, they created new questions that could have some pretty wild implications on not only WrestleMania 36 itself, but the rest of the landscape as well.

With that being said, and The Royal Rumble pay per view now in the books, here are five things WWE should do after the star studded event.

As always, please let us know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to tell us what you think WWE has planned next for the road to WrestleMania:

#5 Break up Fire and Desire

Is this the end of Fire and Desire?

Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville have been great as a pair on Friday Night SmackDown, but it looks like all that might be coming to an end. In fact, between the budding romance of Otis and Mandy Rose, and the way Deville and Rose were eliminated from The Royal Rumble, it seems like they will be splitting up soon.

While that might sound like a very intriguing storyline to follow, it comes with the question of what will happen to the pair post split? Will this lead to Rose acting as a manager for Heavy Machinery sort of? If so, what will happen to her in ring career? Beyond that, what does someone do with a talent like Deville?

In the end, Rose and Deville are very talented women and WWE should have some kind of plan if they are going to separate the two. Either that, or risk stagnating all of the progress they have made with the characters , which would be sad to watch.

#4 Turn Becky Lynch heel

It might just be time to turn Becky Lynch heel!

Becky Lynch has been WWE's top female babyface for well over a year now, and while she has found great success during this time, it is starting to come at the expense of the rest of the division.

In fact, the only opponent on Raw that Lynch hasn't faced for the title yet is Kari Sane, and that's not something that's going to satisfy The WWE Universe.

And even if WWE was satisfied with this kind of match up, the company would still have to get over the hump of not having anywhere to go with Lynch's character. With that being said and Lynch's contract expiring already being teased, why not get The man out of the fray for a bit until a worthy challenger can be found?

Beyond that, why not just go for broke and turn Lynch heel in the process? At least that way, WWE can add a new dynamic to her character, hit the refresh button on The Raw Women's title picture and start to build up to something amazing on the road to WrestleMania 36 as well?

#3 Have The Fiend defend his title in The Elimination Chamber

Wouldn't The Elimination Chamber be a great playground for The Fiend?

It's no secret that brutality is the name of the game for The Fiend going forward, and what better way to showcase that aesthetic than to put him in The Chamber match? Beyond that, what better place to show off the extent of his mind games than the unforgiving chamber?

If nothing else, WWE could have a field day with this kind of stipulation and book several supernatural occurrences, brutal looking spots and even some sinister storytelling that The Fiend has become associated with .

The company could even use the numbers game and the overall brutality of the match to make it seem like The Fiend won't come out Champion.

In the end, The Elimination Chamber is a different kind of match and The Fiend is a different kind of Superstar.

Furthermore, he is a Superstar that would thrive in this kind of environment and would easily allow the company to showcase everything that makes The Fiend great, while also protecting him as well.

Think of this as WWE's get out of jail free card. A way to keep the title picture organic and also keep showing off why The Fiend is to be the most feared creature in WWE.

#2 Have Charlotte Flair challenge Shayna Baszler

Shayna Baszler versus Charlotte Flair. Who wins?

What was WWE thinking?

That had to be the question on The WWE Universe's mind, when Charlotte Flair eliminated Shayna Baszler to win The Royal Rumble, but it could actually be a clever storytelling device. It might even be enough for the company to make an unprecedented move and have Flair challenge Baszler for The NXT title.

Of course some are going to see that being ridiculous, especially since The Queen could easily take on Becky Lynch or Bayley for their respective titles, but what would be the fun of that? Furthermore, how popular of a move would that be compared to Charlotte coming back to NXT and starting a program with Baszler?

Not only would it be a great ratings boost for NXT, which is another feather in the company's cap, it also would do a lot to help build up The NXT Women's division . As if all that wasn't reason enough to execute something like this, just think about how this unprecedented move would shake the fans to their very core!

In the end, this is something WWE hasn't done yet and it would go a long way in surprising the fans from the get go. It is also arguably WWE's best chance at eventually bringing Baszler to Raw Or SmackDown, which fans have been waiting forever for.

#1 Continue to build McIntyre as an underdog

Drew McIntyre might just be WWE's new top babyface

While Drew McIntyre never made it past the mid-card during his first couple of runs with WWE, all that might change after winning The Royal Rumble Sunday Night. The WWE even seems to have him locked in for a match with Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 36, but it is going to take some work to get there.

With that being said and WWE already starting to play up the fact that McIntyre has been let go by company in the past, it makes perfect sense for them to continue this narrative. The company could even up the ante by having Lesnar call McIntyre's victory a fluke and refusing to take him on for the WWE Title.

Or maybe WWE could go for broke and have Cain Velasquez make a surprise return for one last shot at Lesnar's title. Not only will this addition seemingly push McIntyre into afterthought status, which would be very useful, it also gives him more of a mountain to climb in order to fulfill his destiny
