Before WWE Survivor Series, Carmella had attacked Sasha Banks on a couple of occasions to make a bold statement. Banks got back at Carmella last week on the Blue brand and it seems like the two women are ready to engage in a rivalry for the SmackDown Women’s Championship.

Michael Cole hosted both the women in a split-screen interview during this week’s SmackDown to help build their rivalry heading into Tables, Ladders, and Chairs (TLC).

The talk started normally and soon turned into a war of words between the two Superstars. Carmella accused Banks of being jealous of how smoothly she’s cruised through in her journey to become a WWE Superstar while Banks had to struggle to become a Champion.

The Boss, on the other hand, threatened Carmella and warned her that she’d never met a competitor like her to build further heat between the two women ahead of the TLC pay-per-view.

WWE did a good job by having the two women speak their minds without getting physical in the ring. The Princess of Staten Island last competed in April this year, and she’ll need to shake off the ring rust when she competes against The Boss for the SmackDown Women’s title.
