#5 What’s next for the WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion?

Bianca Belair is preparing for a memorable as the WWE SmackDown Women's Champion

WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair successfully defended her title against Bayley at WrestleMania Backlash. She will now look for fresh challenges ahead of the upcoming Hell In A Cell pay-per-view. Unfortunately for her, there are not enough options to explore in the women’s division of the Blue brand.

There’s a high chance that Sasha Banks will return on WWE SmackDown and go after Belair. She never got her title rematch after losing the championship at WrestleMania 37. It would be fair if this leads to another match between the two at Hell In A Cell. It is also one of the very few current rivalries that could gain enough momentum in the next couple of weeks.

The creative team can also book a triple-threat match for the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship at Hell In A Cell between Bianca Belair, Bayley, and Sasha Banks. All three superstars share a long, brutal history and can deliver an epic battle inside the ring. It would be a great way to make up for the lack of high-intensity feuds revolving around the RAW Women’s Championship and the Women’s Tag Team Championships.
