10 WWE Female Wrestlers Who Should Surpass Becky Lynch’s Title Reign
Becky Lynch relinquished the WWE Raw Women's Championship on the May 11th episode of Monday Night Raw, leaving a vital gap at the top of the company. The Man held the red belt for a historic 373 days before handing the title to Asuka after announcing her pregnancy. The Empress of Tomorrow is now champion and outdo Lynch's meteoric legacy.

The Man's absence leaves the rest of the women's locker room to compete for her esteemed position. Another superstar could seize the brass ring by surpassing Lynch's reign with championship gold.
10 Charlotte Flair
Charlotte Flair doesn't necessarily need to surpass Becky Lynch's historic reign with the Raw Women's Championship, but she has the credibility to do it. The NXT Women's Champion is one of the most talented workers in the locker room with an impressive repertoire of championship wins under her belt.
Charlotte could face her old rival Asuka again for the red belt which could lead to an eventual confrontation with The Man. Charlotte's matches against Becky have been superb and it would be great to see them revisit their rivalry.
9 Asuka
The current Raw Women's Champion is no stranger to historic reigns and lengthy winning streaks. Asuka was undefeated for an extraordinary 914 days. Another winning streak with the red belt could skyrocket her popularity and cement her as the biggest star in the women's division.
Asuka, like Charlotte, is a skilled wrestler more than capable of delivering in high-profile matches. The Raw Women's Championship benefits from being held by a credible Superstar such as the Empress of Tomorrow.
8 Shayna Baszler
The Queen of Spades came up short in her attempt to defeat Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's Title at WrestleMania 36, but another shot at the red belt could redeem the former UFC star. Baszler is a powerful force and she could dominate the women's division in The Man's absence.
Another match between Shayna Baszler and Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's Title could take place if/when The Man returns from maternity leave. There is plenty of talent to keep Baszler occupied until then.
7 Bayley
Bayley is the current SmackDown Women's Champion and could, potentially, hold onto the blue belt for longer than Lynch's historic 373 days. Alternatively, the Role Model could drop the strap to Sasha Banks before returning to Raw to recapture the red belt.

Bayley is the star of SmackDown's women's division and is enjoying a grand reign with the title following her sensational heel turn. Like the other NXT Four Horsewomen, she has the credibility to carry the championship for a record-setting reign.
6 Sasha Banks
The Boss failed in her attempt to dethrone Becky Lynch at Hell In A Cell, but with The Man out of the picture, another reign with the red belt could be in her future. Banks has lost a lot of momentum since returning from hiatus and recapturing the Raw Women's Championship is the new direction her character needs.
Sasha Banks' title reigns have been brief and underwhelming. The Boss deserves a lengthy reign with the championship to re-establish her position in the company.
5 Ronda Rousey
Ronda Rousey's future with WWE remains unclear, but if the Baddest Woman On The Planet decides to return to the company then she could recapture the belt that Becky Lynch took from her. Rousey was a dominant force who excelled in the ring. A second reign with the strap could solidify her already impressive status.
Rousey has the credibility and the talent to surpass The Man's title reign. Lynch could return to find her empire overthrown by her former foe, triggering a second clash between the Superstars.
4 Nia Jax
Nia Jax looks set to clash with Asuka for the Raw Women's Title and could be on her way to another reign with the red belt. The Irresistible Force is a powerful figure. A historic reign would cement her legacy and establish her as a credible threat to the other Superstars in the locker room.

Jax won the Raw Women's Championship at WrestleMania 34 after defeating her former friend Alexa Bliss. Although her first reign ended at 70 days, her second reign could be far lengthier.
3 Rhea Ripley
The inaugural NXT UK Women's Champion has a bright future ahead of her that could feature a historic title reign to rival Becky Lynch. Ripley dropped the NXT Women's Championship to Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 36, but another championship reign could redeem her loss.
WWE could invest in new and upcoming talent by having Ripley surpass The Man's title reign. The Australian Superstar would be a refreshing face for the main roster's women's division.
2 Bianca Belair
If WWE does want to invest in younger talent then Bianca Belair would be a great choice to surpass The Man's legacy. The EST of NXT has made a great addition to Monday Night Raw. A lengthy reign with the red belt could be the push her character needs to become the next top star in the division.
Belair is currently working with the Street Profits on Raw, but winning a title would cement her as a singles competitor.
1 Liv Morgan
Liv Morgan's character has seen some questionable booking, including a puzzling relationship angle with Lana, but she is an improving worker who deserves more credibility in the division. WWE could focus on her slow pursuit of redemption as she works her way to the top of the company by challenging the Raw Women's Champion.
Morgan has the potential to follow in The Man's footsteps to become the company's next big babyface. A historic title reign would elevate her status and provide fans with a clear-cut heroine to root for.
