#3. Rousey's revenge against Charlotte Flair

Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair battled for the RAW Women's Championship in the 2018 Survivor Series. During the match, Charlotte hit Ronda with a Kendo Stick and got disqualified. Despite that, Charlotte kept ambushing Rousey, who was unable to retrieve herself from the attack.

Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch competed in a Triple Threat Match stipulated as Winner-Takes-All in the main event of WrestleMania 35. Becky Lynch defied all odds and defeated Charlotte and Ronda to become a double champion. Ronda once again failed to get the better of her long-time enemy, Charlotte as well as Becky.

But following her return to the Royal Rumble, she eliminated Charlotte Flair and then went on to win the match. It would be an excellent decision if Ronda challenges Flair for the women's championship at WrestleMania and ultimately defeats her.
