Sasha Banks and Bayley made mention of the fact that they will show up on just about any brand to defend their prized titles. They even showed up on NXT not long ago, to issue a challenge. This week, they took on The IIconics in what was a pretty interesting non-title contest, I thought. Especially so, because they ended up on the losing side.
I don't like the champions getting pinned, usually. But this was probably done to set up a title match, where the audience actually perceives The IIconics as a threat to the reigning champions. And this is why I think I am cool with the idea of Sasha and Bayley losing.
