The Women's World Championship picture on WWE RAW is seemingly wide open after the events on this week's edition of the red brand. Nikki Bella returned to confront Stephanie Vaquer in the ring, while Raquel Rodriguez surprisingly confronted the Hall of Famer as well.

La Primera retained her title against Bella at Survivor Series WarGames in a singles match. However, it remains unclear who her next challenger will be. In this listicle, we will take a look at five stars who could eventually dethrone Vaquer and become the next Women's World Champion.

5. Raquel Rodriguez

Raquel Rodriguez has yet to win a singles title on the main roster despite being a very dominant presence in the NXT women's division. Big Mami Cool is a multi-time tag team champion, but could dethrone Vaquer to win the Women's World Championship if she is booked strongly.

She has the size advantage over the rest of the division and could go on a very dominant run if she fulfills her potential.

4. Nikki Bella

The Hall of Famer returned to WWE RAW this past week to reignite her feud with Stephanie Vaquer. It seems like another title match between the two could be in the works, and perhaps Bella could win a world title one last time before she retires from pro wrestling.

As a heel, she could cheat to win the gold, which would give Vaquer even more motivation to reclaim it. This way, WWE could make La Primera a two-time world champion while also giving Bella the spotlight.

3. Rhea Ripley

Rhea Ripley is currently involved in the Women's Tag Team Championship picture with Iyo Sky, and has been away from the singles division for a while. If she fails to win the tag team championship with Sky, she could turn her attention back to the world title and challenge Stephanie Vaquer to a dream match.

A clash of this magnitude, however, would be best saved for a stage like WrestleMania.

2. Iyo Sky

The former Women's World Champion has a solid claim to a rematch against Stephanie Vaquer. The two competed for the title at WWE Wrestlepalooza after it was vacated by Naomi, and they could have a rematch down the line.

Sky had a great run as the world champion and could perhaps dethrone Vaquer down the line. But, like Ripley, she would need to exit the tag division to do so.

Immediately after her return to WWE, Morgan confronted Stephanie Vaquer and put the champion on notice. The Judgment Day member was out of action for more than half a year before her return at Survivor Series.

To help Morgan regain her momentum and credibility, they could have her dethrone Stephanie Vaquer in the near future. This would give the fans a great storyline to get behind between two of the biggest stars in the women's division.

However, based on Morgan confronting Rodriguez for going after Nikki Bella this past week, it will be interesting to see what happens in the world title picture in the coming weeks.
