Speculation on who could be the next RAW Women's Champion after Becky Lynch - Report
Becky Lynch put on a fantastic main event with Liv Morgan this week on RAW, As expected, the championship match had a controversial finish to extend the angle.
Dave Meltzer discussed the future of the RAW Women's title during the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, and speculated that Morgan could possibly dethrone Becky Lynch soon to become the next RAW Women's Champion.

Meanwhile, Morgan would be elevated to a different level if she captured her maiden title. While Meltzer wasn't aware of WWE's long-term plans, he did state that Becky Lynch should be the one holding the championship at the end of her feud with Liv Morgan.
Meltzer had the following to say on WOR:
"I think that's probably going to happen (Liv Morgan winning the title). The thing is, I don't know what the long-term is, but I mean, they can have Morgan win, but in the long-term, Lynch should be the champion. But there is no rule like she can't lose it for a little while and win it back. You know it would make Morgan, it would help Morgan into something. It would elevate her to have a short reign, and Lynch isn't going to get hurt by losing it and winning it back. Lynch is already a star. I don't know that; they are sometimes hesitant about giving new people titles, but it's a pass-around title. I mean, there is no reason not to. I mean, it's not like it's Roman Reigns; the world title is not a pass-around title," explained Dave Meltzer.
What's next for Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch?
