WWE SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair was involved in a war of words with Half of Famer Lita last week. The latter had the last laugh during their brief encounter, but The Queen cannot remain distracted by the past events.

Former champion Naomi made her way into the title picture earlier this month. She, unfortunately, lost the match against The Queen because of Sonya Deville's interferences, but things didn't end there.

Naomi now has a chance to prove herself as a deserving title contender in her rematch against Charlotte Flair tonight on SmackDown. She will look to pick up a huge victory on the show and win a future shot at the women's championship.

In the absence of Sasha Banks and Bayley, Naomi is the one who can pose a serious threat to Flair's title reign, and hopefully, this time, she will finally be involved in a bout that has a clean finish.

#3 Sami Zayn extends his title aspirations on WWE SmackDown

Recent reports confirmed that Sami Zayn had signed a long-term contract with the company. He is also the title contender for Shinsuke Nakamura's Intercontinental Championship, and the two superstars are expected to engage in the high-stakes match in the future.

Zayn recently lost against Rick Boogs and was on the receiving end of Nakamura's devastating blow. But that has not crushed his spirits. Determined to prove himself as a victim of a conspiracy, Sami Zayn will leave no stone unturned in pushing his narrative on the blue brand.

It will be interesting to see what's next for this title feud, especially considering that Shinsuke Nakamura has not defended his championship in months.
