Last week on WWE RAW, Sasha Banks finally made her return to WWE TV after months away from the ring.

After losing at WrestleMania 35, Banks spent over five months away from the company, as rumors ran wild on the reason behind this.

On last week's RAW, Banks re-solidified herself as one of the top star in the company's women's division, and showing her true colors - literally - when she attacked the injured Natalya, revealing her new blue hair.

#5 Should: Reference being overlooked

Each of Sasha's reigns as RAW Women's Champion have been short, though others have had much longer reigns.

When Sasha Banks was called up from NXT in 2015, there was plenty of buzz around the Boss.

In the yellow and black brand, the Boss had been a tour de force, even holding the NXT Women's Championship, before she made the jump to the red brand.

In her four years on the main roster, though, things haven't been easy for her. Even though she's a four-time RAW Women's Champion, and one half of the first-ever WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, each of these reigns were surprisingly short.

With stars like Charlotte Flair, Lacey Evans and others receiving title shot after title shot, this could definitely be something that the Boss should address on tonight's show, leaving fans to question what parts of what she's said are a work, and what parts are a shoot.

#4 Shouldn't: Appear too much during the show

Banks' feud with Bayley in 2018 saw both Superstars appear regularly on RAW, though their feud eventually went nowhere.

After her tag team loss with Bayley to the IIconics at WrestleMania 35, Sasha Banks went on an extended break from the company.

For months, fans wondered whether the reports of an incident backstage were legitimate, and though she didn't appear on the show for months, Banks remained one of the most discussed Superstars in the entire industry.

It seems the old saying 'absence makes the heart grow fonder' is true. If that's the case, though, then the company needs to be careful not to over-expose the former RAW Women's Champion now that she has finally returned.

Before her break, Banks' was one of the most regular parts of the red brand, and though she was able to deliver entertaining matches on a weekly basis, this did mean she got lost in the shuffle.

Making only one or two appearances on tonight's three-hour show would show great restraint by the company, and saving her for later in the show could help keep audiences tuned in for the entire duration of Monday Night RAW.

#3 Should: Explain her actions

Many fans feel an explanation is in order from the Boss.

Last week, Sasha Banks made her return to RAW in a major way, attacking the injured Natalya and RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch.

The first heel turn for the Boss in over three years, this is a side of Banks many fans have never seen before, though has come as a refreshing change of piece for the Superstar.

Banks' actions last week have also left many fans asking why exactly she would turn on both the Canadian and the Man, two Superstars she has teamed with in the past.

The best heels are those who think they are justified in what they do, such as Kevin Owens, who before turning face, would explain his heel antics as all being in effort to win titles, which meant a bigger paycheck and more money for his family.

Perhaps Sasha could mention about how it's been over two years since she last held the RAW Women's Championship, and that she is hungry to get the title back.

Whether fans love her or hate her, it seems everyone wants to hear the Boss' reasons for her actions last week.

#2 Shouldn't: Wrestle

Sasha hasn't competed since the Fatal 4-Way Tag match at WrestleMania, though WWE should make fans wait even longer.

Though it's been months since the WWE Universe saw Sasha Banks compete in an official match, it's best to keep the fans waiting.

In her last match in the company, Banks and her then tag team partner, Bayley, came up short against The IIconics at WrestleMania 35, losing the Women's Tag Team titles to the Australian duo in the process.

But if Banks were to return to action tonight, she would be just like the rest of the roster, and the company should certainly avoid having her in a tag team match. That is, If they're interested in keeping her new found mystique as a lone tough chick.

Much like Bray Wyatt, Banks' absence has made her one of the most anticipated Superstars of 2019, so her first match back should be something special.

Perhaps the Boss could say she refuses to wrestle until it's for the RAW Women's Championship, forcing the current titleholder no choice but to give in to Banks' demand, just in time for next months Clash of Champions Pay Per View on September 15th.

#1 Should: Get the upper hand on Becky Lynch again

Sasha floored The Man last week on RAW, and should do so again.

At WrestleMania 35, Becky Lynch made history by claiming both the RAW and SmackDown Women's Championships in the first-ever women's match main event in the Pay Per View's long history.

Since April, The Man has been virtually untouchable, aside from one blemish, losing the blue brand's gold to Charlotte Flair - who then promptly lost the title to Bayley in a Money in the Bank cash-in.

Though this has made for a unique time as champion for the Irish Superstar, Lynch's time as the alpha-female has rubbed some fans the wrong way, with some arguing that The Man has reached John Cena levels of unbeatableness. She is seemingly defeating all her foes with ease, whilst maintaining a self-confidence that borderlines on sheer arrogance.

Last week's attack by Banks was a refreshing change of pace, as Lynch's cocky demeanor was no match to the wrath of the Boss, who was made to look like a star in the affair.

Having a similar attack this week on RAW would go a long way in proving that The Man can still be hurt, which will make for a much more compelling story.
