Welcome back to wrestling world!
The Sasha Banks and Bayley storyline is finally
heating up again with huge storyline related
things happening both inside and outside of
the ring, so let’s recap everything that’s
new with Sasha And Bayley in today’s wrestling
news
Let’s pick up where we left off at, the
Smackdown before WWE Payback
This episode of Smackdown featured a promo
from Sasha and Bayley and they weren’t holding
back at all
Usually the jabs between Sasha and Bayley
are very subtle, but that hasn’t been the
case in this last few days at all
They were throwing the verbal jabs at each
other without even attempting to hide them
Starting off with Bayley who’s been very
negative and critical to Sasha Banks recently
As you know by now, Sasha Banks is a former
5 time Raw women’s champion, but none of
her 5 title reigns has been longer than 27
days
I hate bringing that stat up because it’s
frustrating to look at.
How can such a great phenomenal talent like
Sasha Banks have 5 title reigns, but never
had successful title defense and a reign longer
than 3 weeks?
Fans seem to put the blame on the raw women’s
title, saying that it’s cursed and who knows,
maybe that is true
But Bayley used this stat and threw it in
Sasha’s face on Smackdown to embarrass her
Bayley said that being Sasha’s best friend,
she should’ve known about Sasha’s tendency
to have short title reigns and unsuccessful
title defenses
Bayley wasn’t saying it angrily or trying
to frustrate Sasha with that statement, but
it’s clear that Bayley had a very sarcastic
tone with that line
Bayley’s basically telling Sasha “don’t
blame me for the title loss, you’re the
one that can never defend the title”
And Sasha did have a nice little response,
but I find that line so ironic for Bayley’s
character because Bayley hasn’t had an actual
solo title defense in quite some time
As we know, it’s always Sasha Banks that’s
basically defending the Smackdown women’s
title for Bayley
So Sasha should’ve thrown that line back
in Bayley’s face, but it looks like they’ll
be saving that line for down the line
Sasha will finally let Bayley know that she’s
only champion right now because of her
If Sasha wasn’t by Bayley’s side, Bayley
would have lost the title months ago, that’s
a major fact
We then go to payback and as expected, Sasha
and Bayley lost the tag team titles which
will really take them another step closer
to their breakup
The finish to the match was very creative
and great, it really adds a lot of conflict
and discussion between the characters of Sasha
and Bayley, and for the fans as well
At first, it seemed like Sasha Banks and Bayley
both tapped during the double submission,
but upon further review, it seems that Bayley
was the only one that tapped out
Therefore making Bayley the reason why they
lost the tag team titles
Sasha has been very active on twitter, saying
that she didn’t tap, so it looks like we
could be going down the route of Sasha putting
the full blame on Bayley
I also saw a lot of interesting stats from
Sasha and Bayley that I thought would be great
to go over and discuss
Since they’re tag team title win a few months
back, Sasha Banks has been responsible for
100 percent of their successful title defenses
and wins.
Sasha even picked up the pin to win the titles
in the first place as well
So that builds the perfect idea that Sasha
was basically carrying the tag team
The stat also says that Bayley is responsible
for both of their tag team title losses which
is a true fact and could be something that
Sasha Banks could uses against Bayley in a
future promo
When Sasha Banks and Bayley loss the women’s
tag team championships in 2019, it was Bayley
who got pinned by the Iconics
Now fast forward one year later, Bayley is
the one tapping out to Shayna Baszler and
costing them the titles again
So that seems to be the theme there and it
could be something we see mentioned down the
line
Sasha has been responsible for a large majority
of their title wins and Bayley has been responsible
for all of their title losses, so that’s
a good thing to point out
They already threw Sasha’s short titles
into the dialogue between Sasha and Bayley,
so I wouldn’t be surprised if we see them
mention that Bayley is responsible for all
of their losses
Now let’s talk about Sasha’s hidden message
that basically confirms that she’s about
to turn on Bayley at any second
Sasha Banks took to Instagram to post a picture
from WWE Payback, but the picture isn’t
the most important thing here at all, it’s
the caption that’s the very important thing
to notice here
So let’s read that caption and break it
down.
Sasha had this to say in that recent Instagram
post from this week:
“You’re right, I am the boss, and I do
what I want for myself and my career and I
make no apologizes for it”
That was a new quote from Sasha.
Sasha was quoting herself from a few years
ago on Raw
That same exact quote right there is exactly
what Sasha Banks told Bayley backstage in
the locker-room area shortly before attacking
her
Sasha using that quote again is very deep
and could be some heavy foreshadowing for
Sasha Banks attacking Bayley once again
I love when superstars do little things like
that because it gives us something to discuss
and really dive into
We’re really breaking that quote down because
the last time Sasha said that, it resulted
in Sasha attacking Bayley
So the fact that Sasha is quoting herself
from the previous attack has everyone wondering
if she’s about to pull the same thing off
again
The women’s tag team titles automatically
gives you the right to appear on every show,
that’s why we saw Sasha and Bayley on both
Raw and Smackdown
But now that they lost the tag team titles
and Sasha Banks lost the Raw women’s championship,
it seems that sasha and Bayley pretty much
lost their rights to appear on Raw
it looks like Sasha Banks and Bayley will
be exclusive to Smackdown again which is sort
of unfortunate because I was really enjoying
them being on both shows because it gave us
even more content and depth for their storyline
But it’s understandable, they don’t have
the raw title or the tag titles, so they no
longer have any business appearing on Raw
Sasha and Bayley are back on Smackdown and
we just have to see where their story goes
next
WWE has obviously been moving at such a slow
pace with this breakup story, it’s been
like 7 months already of buildup, so it can
honestly happen any day now, but I’m not
sure if I want this big moment to happen on
a random episode of Smackdown
Like we said, this breakup has been going
on for the past several months, so I would
expect for the breakup and the singles match
between Sasha and Bayley to take place on
a huge stage
We know that it was being rumored for them
to have a singles match at Wrestlemania 36
and at Summerslam, but neither of those matches
took place
So where will this match finally take place
at?
Will it be clash of champions?
I don’t know, that seems like such a random
event for this big match to take place at
Maybe something like survivor series would
be more fitting, but that show has been “Raw
vs Smackdown” themed in recent years, so
you can’t really do it there either
Does WWE stretch it out until next year’s
royal rumble?
I seriously doubt it.
I don’t think WWE has enough content to
stretch Sasha and Bayley’s story out for
another 4 months, it’s just not happening
Their match should take place soon, I just
hope they have a huge stage for this match
to take place at.
Let them close out whatever pay per view event
they’re on because these women are definitely
capable of carrying that main event spot.
The feud really deserves the main event spot
after, so much build up and anticipation over
the last few months
But I think we finally made it after such
a long journey, I think we’re finally in
the last few weeks for Sasha Banks and Bayley
being best friends
The tension is higher than ever and it seems
like Sasha Banks is about to snap after the
last few weeks she had
What are your thoughts on this update to the
Sasha Banks and Bayley storyline?
Are you excited to finally see their one on
one match after this long journey to get to
this point?
