On the July 13 episode of Raw, Stephanie McMahon called for a "revolution" in the Divas division, subsequently introducing the best Charlotte, Becky Lynch, and Sasha Banks as members of the main roster. Charlotte and Lynch allied with Paige, who was engaged in a feud with Team Bella (Alicia Fox and The Bella Twins), while Banks allied with Tamina and Naomi, starting a rivalry between the three teams. The trio of Charlotte, Lynch, and Paige was dubbed Team PCB after the first name initials of each Wrestler. On July 19 at Battleground, Charlotte defeated Banks and Brie Bella in a triple threat match in her WWE pay-per-view debut. The three teams would ultimately face off at SummerSlam in a three team elimination match, which Charlotte's team won after Lynch pinned Brie Bella. On the August 31 episode of Raw, Charlotte overcame fellow Team PCB members' records in the first ever Divas Beat the Clock challenge, and was named the new number one contender to Nikki Bella's Divas Championship. Her title match against Nikki Bella, initially advertised for Night of Champions, took place on the September 14 episode of Raw, so Charlotte could stop Bella from surpassing AJ Lee's record and becoming the longest-reigning Divas Champion. Charlotte won the match by disqualification after she pinned Brie due to the twins switching places, causing Nikki to retain her title. On September 20 at Night of Champions, Charlotte defeated Nikki in a rematch to win the Divas Championship for the first time. During Charlotte's celebration the following night on Raw, Paige cut a worked shoot promo and turned on her Charlotte and Lynch, berating them and the Divas division. Throughout October, Paige appeared to have reconciled with Lynch and Charlotte. Paige cemented her departure from the team by attacking both Charlotte and Lynch the night after Charlotte successfully retained her championship against Nikki at Hell in a Cell. Charlotte successfully defended her title against Paige on three different occasions—at Survivor Series on November 22, in a rematch the following night on Raw and at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs on December 13.
