#3. Hope is true: WWE's plans for Sasha Banks and Bayley's first match

WWE's decision to pull the trigger on the Sasha Banks-Bayley split finally came to fruition six days after Payback 2020, when The Golden Role Models failed to regain the tag team titles. Bayley viciously assaulted Sasha Banks and took her out.

While Nikki Cross is going to be Bayley's Smackdown Women's title challenger at Clash of Champions, the inevitable goal is to reach the Sasha Banks-Bayley feud. According to Dave Meltzer on WOR, WWE will be going ahead with the program heading into Hell in a Cell, with their bout happening inside the gargantuan steel structure.
