#1. Worst: The lack of depth in the SmackDown Women's title feud

We will admit that there was a slight improvement this week on SmackDown. The Women's title feud between Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair was overcomplicated and tangled up with other rivalries and titles up until Fastlane. It didn't add any anticipation to the match at WrestleMania.

WWE chose to go a more direct route this week on SmackDown, but it didn't feel sufficient enough. It seems like Sasha Banks quietly turned heel while Bianca Belair is trying to pick up momentum as a babyface. She faced Natalya this week on SmackDown. During the match, Belair was sent out of the ring and she slapped Banks, who was at ringside. She won the match after hitting the KOD on Natalya.

Belair managed to make several power moves look effortless, including her finish of the WWE veteran on SmackDown. Post-match, the SmackDown Women's Champion Sasha Banks attacked Bianca Belair to make a statement.

The confusion seems to have cooled down this rivalry, and we can only hope that it gets restored in the next two weeks on SmackDown. Is Bianca Belair's time going to begin two weeks from now at WrestleMania?
