#5. To set up Becky Lynch's heel turn

Could WWE finally turn Becky Lynch heel?

The WWE Universe seems to be vehemently against Becky Lynch turning heel and while their stance is understandable, it's not best for business. Furthermore, not turning Lynch heel risks bringing the Raw women's division to a complete halt, which would not be a good thing heading into WrestleMania 36.

If nothing else, WWE needs something that is going to change up the Women's Title picture and finally turning Lynch heel is a way to do that. In fact, it could go a long way in bringing her character to new heights and also pave the way for several weeks of ground breaking television.

In the end, WWE needs to do something before WrestleMania 36 and turning Lynch heel after losing the Raw Women's Title would be the best way to do this. It might even succeed in putting the division into uncharted territory again and possibly recapturing the magic that happened during WrestleMania 35.
