SmackDown is a show which has a history of creating some of the best female wrestlers ever in the field of professional pro-wrestling. As a result, the Women's Championship is extremely prestigious and held in high esteem. It is considered at par with the Men's WWE Championship. Wrestlers who have held this title, have created an everlasting impression for themselves.
Carmella is the current champion. She defeated none other than Charlotte Flair, who is one of the toughest wrestlers in the entire WWE female roster. She cashed in her Money in the Bank contract and thus preyed upon a vulnerable champion.
Here are five such wrestlers who can give Carmella a tough competition and become the next SmackDown Women's Champion:
