WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal (Kickoff Show)
Last year the entire world felt the Glow, as Naomi made history by winning the inaugural WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal. Naomi will defend her crown and attempt to be the last woman standing for a second year in a row, but it won't be easy. She will face stiff competition, as some of RAW and SmackDown's greatest female competitors enter this bout.
Nikki Cross is extremely dangerous, but does she have the mental faculties necessary to strategize her way to victory? Lana is one of WWE's hardest working performers, but despite her efforts, she has yet to have a WrestleMania moment. Will that trend continue? Then there's Ruby Riott. Perhaps no woman on the roster has been as under-utilized and under appreciated as Riott, who debuted on the main roster with high hopes, but quickly fizzled among a crowded RAW brand.
Perhaps no woman comes into this match more motivated than Asuka, who less than two weeks ago held one of WWE's most prestigious championships, only to lose it to Charlotte Flair. Now the former champion won't even be appearing on the main show and will instead be relegated to the Kickoff Show. Asuka is as competitive as they come and being relegated to the Kickoff Show definitely sticks in her craw. A motivated Asuka is a dangerous Asuka.
There's Carmella, Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville, and Dana Brooke. Each of these women would love to win the WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal and use it to catapult their career, but each woman competing in the battle royal has something in common. None of them are prepared for Lacey Evans. Evans has been appearing on RAW and SmackDown shows, but has yet to actually wrestle. Evans; however, has wrestled at WWE house shows and received rave reviews standing out among her counterparts. There have even been backstage rumblings that Evans is seen as one of the women that will carry the division in the future ala Charlotte Flair or Becky Lynch.
Despite the best efforts of the rest of the field, look for Evans to enter the match and make a huge statement with a memorable WrestleMania victory.
Odds On Favorite: +100 Lacey Evans
Projected Winner: Lacey Evans
