As we head into WrestleMania 36, the women champions seem to have the most intrigue. We are going to be seeing Charlotte challenge Rhea Ripley for the NXT Woman title. Becky Lynch seems to be on a collision course with former NXT Woman’s champion Shayna Bazler for the Raw Woman title. We won’t find out officially until the Elimination Chamber in a few weeks. Now that leaves Bayley. As of this writing, she is the Smackdown Woman champion and is a heel. Many people feel that this heel run is not connecting.

On the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Live, Dave Meltzer said that the plans are for Naomi to take on Bayley at WrestleMania 36. It’s worth noting that Naomi is set to take on Carmella on Smackdown to determine the #1 contender. The winner is set to face Bayley at Super Showdown. This is the second time women are being allowed to wrestle in Saudi Arabia.

More WWE: Sasha Banks To Turn Heel?

At last year’s Super Showdown, Lacey Evans took on Natalya. This is great because it’s something different. However, I don’t have the same feeling about this than I do with the other women matches set for WrestleMania.

My biggest issue is how she has been booked as the Smackdown Woman’s Champion. I understand that she was getting to a point in her career where she needed to turn heel. Her babyface run was becoming stale. I felt that the WWE missed the boat on a few things. Her big thing was being there for the kids. I would have had her say no to a kid who wanted a hug.

This is the second time in recent memory where Naomi would be either challenging pr walking into WrestleMania as the Smackdown Woman’s Champion. If you recall, she walked into WrestleMania 33 as the Smackdown Woman’s Champion.

We will know more if this is the case in the next couple of weeks. Please continue to stay locked into Cavemen Radio Show as we will keep our fans up to date on the latest wrestling news.
