#2. Sasha Banks was dealt a harsh blow at SummerSlam

Bayley is the longest-reigning SmackDown Women's Champion in the history of the title, so why couldn't Bayley be the one to lose her Championship at SummerSlam inside of Sasha Banks?

Sasha Banks only recently won the RAW Women's Championship and once again, for the fifth time in her career, she failed to defend it successfully. This means that Sasha Banks has been unable to successfully defend the RAW Women's Championship on every occasion that she has held it.

It was Bayley who beat Kairi Sane backstage; surely revenge for Sane would have been for Asuka to take away Bayley's championship. It seems harsh to continue to make Banks look like she's incapable of defending a championship when she has been one of the hardest working women in the company since March.

There were so many options at WWE's disposal at SummerSlam and it appears that the company went for the easiest one, Banks facing Asuka last and losing her title, because it meant that Banks could then head back to SmackDown.
