• Rumor Killer On Carmella Becoming A Women’s Champion Soon
There are rumors going on that Carmella is going to successfully cash-in her Money In The Bank contract soon and become either the SmackDown or the Raw Women’s Champion (yes, some people have even begun speculating that she might get drafted to Raw and become a Champion over there).
However, that’s not the case. As DirtySheets.Net originally reported in their exclusive report, plan is still for Carmella to cash-in her Money in the Bank contract and end up losing her Title match.
The only thing that’s not confirmed at the moment is if she will cash-in at WrestleMania 34 or at a later point. Carmella wants to have her cash-in moment at WrestleMania 34, but WWE officials think they already have enough moments planned for WrestleMania 34 and this one can be saved for a later date.
