#1. Her failure to turn heel on the main roster

Its been almost three years since she debuted and we have yet to see Banks shine as a heel. This is an alignment that always best suited her personality and character. Continual clunky, unconvincing babyface promos have solidified this fact. This was evident even from her earliest promos on RAW when squaring off against Charlotte Flair-- it was obvious Banks was deeply out of her comfort zone.

The 'Boss' persona clearly doesn't lend itself to a babyface character (Banks was ruthless and arrogant during her NXT days). Her lack of versatility might have ultimately led to her gradual downfall.

2018 saw Banks in an awkward feud/relationship with Bayley where it seemed she was on the verge of snapping, but WWE never really went ahead with that angle. This would have been the ideal timeframe as it was clear management had zero immediate direction or long-term vision for both women
