Why Bayley & Sasha Banks should belong on two separate WWE rosters

On this week's RAW, we witnessed Sasha Banks being confronted by Bayley after their tag-team match against Dana Brooke & Alicia Fox.

While the audience was expecting something along the lines of their usual 'frenemy' plot, Sasha Banks may have dropped a huge-bombshell in front of us.

"I love that you're always there for me when I don't even ask you to be. And for some reason, you always can tell when something's wrong. So I just don't understand why you don't get it. I love you. I always have, and I always will" - Sasha Banks to Bayley.

After the episode ended, social media reactions to this specific segment began popping up everywhere. Many reactions hinted at the possibility of an LGBTQ plot-twist in the works.

It is a popular opinion that this Bayley-Sasha feud has been quite aimless in figuring out its ultimate hook so far. From therapy sessions to a possible LGTBQ storyline, this feud can potentially hurt both Bayley & Sasha Banks' careers in the long run.

The next few slides will take a look at some reasons as to why Bayley & Sasha Banks should belong on two separate rosters.

#1 Their ongoing feud

Let us start with the most obvious reason.

On paper, a Sasha Banks versus Bayley feud sounds quite optimistic. After all, Sasha & Bayley are two of The Four Horsewomen linked to the Women's revolution in WWE.

But as it happens to be, WWE has a pretty good track record when it comes to delivering just short of all expectations from fans.

Usually, when a feud bombs- it is either forgotten in the long run or remembered for eternity just because of how bad it was. However, this recent (possible) plot twist has made things more complicated.

Do not get me wrong, I am not condemning the inclusion of an LGBT storyline in WWE. However, in the past, this company has been guilty of portraying certain stereotypical and offensive gimmicks/storylines.

Adding that with a recent history of improperly executing their feuds- it is more than likely that the future might not hold a positive outcome for Bayley & Sasha Banks.

But with so many thematic changes in this feud, one always wonders whether this shift is a last-minute frantic attempt by WWE to revitalize an unsuccessful storyline by any means necessary.

Either that or it was Sasha's misleading delivery towards the end of their segment which prompted everyone to already make false assumptions (possibly). Only time will tell where both of these incredibly-talented wrestlers stand at the end of all this.

While it is pretty obvious that a bad feud cannot be the only reason to separate these two from the same show, it is my next reason that is even more problematic than this one.

#2: They will always be linked to each other.

I can hear the reader go- "Of course they'll be linked to each other. They are two of The Four Horsewomen!"

Yes, they will always be linked to each other for many reasons. However, in recent months, because of a booking trope that raises more questions than answers, it is my firm theory that Sasha Banks & Bayley can hurt each other more than they benefit from being part of the same roster.

At some points, they appear as friends. At other times, they become enemies. This periodical shift is so common, that an average viewer simply categorizes these two as wrestlers who will always be embroiled against one another instead of moving on and focusing on their respective careers.

Even after their feud gets over, Sasha & Bayley will always be linked to each other in a manner that will always hurt their case more than it will help them to move up on the WWE ladder.

Sasha Banks & Bayley are two amazing wrestlers who are lowering their stock by being stuck in a feud that has not found its core audience so far.

I could also be wrong, and the new possible plot twist might be their key to success. But as of now, things are looking less than optimistic for sure.

#3: More Opportunities.

As the video above suggests, Sasha Banks was main-eventing and being the major focus of several shows during her feud with Charlotte Flair.

Times have certainly changed since then, as more women are being handed title opportunities whilst Sasha & Bayley can't let go of each other.

Basically, pulling these two apart from this feud won't be the only thing to magically cure whatever damage has been done. Because as the second point suggests earlier, both of these women will always be linked to each other whether they are in a feud or not.

By putting them on separate shows, Sasha & Bayley can start fresh and possibly avoid aimless feuds that have no real stakes in the first place.

Being in a non-championship feud in the women's division can be good or bad- depending upon the booking. But being in a non-championship feud that drags all the momentum and never ceases to end is the absolute WORST.

The latter case pertains to Bayley & Sasha's ongoing feud, and perhaps being on two separate rosters might do more benefit than harm after all.

That is why ladies and gentlemen- Bayley & Sasha Banks SHOULD belong on two separate rosters. Of course, sometimes things magically become better in this crazy world of WWE, but let us keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best towards what is to come...

Therapy sessions. Sigh...
