Raw recap 26th February, 2018– All aboard the road to WrestleMania

Sasha banks, Bayley, and Asuka def. Alexa Bliss, Mickie James, and Nia Jax

Bayley bails on Banks

This was a fine match to open the show, but it was nothing too special. Asuka continues to dominate in the ring and looked particularly strong here, fending of Nia Jax on route to making Mickie James tap. The slow-burning tension between Bayley and Sasha Banks took an interesting turn, as Bayley was the one who left her friend hanging dry this time. WWE has got to book a grudge match between these two for WrestleMania, as to have a women singles match that isn’t built around a title would be incredibly refreshing to see at WrestleMania. The last time that happened was way back at WrestleMania 22 when Torrie Wilson and Candice Michelle competed in a “playboy pillow fight” match. The less about that the better

I’m still unsure where Bliss’ alliance with James and Jax is going either. Asuka technically hasn’t confirmed which championship she’s going to challenge for at WrestleMania, so it all feels up in the air at the moment. Hopefully, the road to WrestleMania gets clearer for these women.
