The WWE is currently facing a huge problem with some of its biggest Superstars like Roman Reigns, Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair sidelined due to various reasons. Combine that with the fact that the world is going through a pandemic and WWE doesn’t have any audiences for its live shows, you have a crisis at your hands.
However, two Superstars have converted this challenge into an opportunity and have become the focal point of WWE programming.
We are talking about the dynamic duo of Sasha Banks and Bayley. With the company struggling with the lack of star power, these two women have proven their worth.

Their impeccable heel work has ensured that they are constantly being featured on both Raw and SmackDown.
The trend continued on this week’s Monday Night Raw as Banks and Bayley were part of the main event. They put their women’s tag team championships on the line against the very talented Kabuki warriors.
After an incredible back and forth match-up, Sasha and Bayley would again retain their coveted championship titles. It’s notable that they had gained a victory over Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss on the previous episode of SmackDown.
Needless to say, the WWE is very high on the tag team and its immense potential. It’s also not a far stretch to say that they have elevated the worth of the women’s tag team titles which were on the verge of becoming completely worthless just a month ago.
The fans are certainly loving what they are seeing which reflected on Twitter.

Twitter was full of praise for the duo.
This is probably the best run of Sasha Banks' main roster career.

Sasha Banks is having the type of matches every week that Daniel Bryan was having in the run up to SummerSlam 2013.

Look, I honestly believe this plan: let Bayley and Sasha Banks hold ALL the women's Main Roster Championships. They're the faces of not just the Women's Division, but ALL OF WWE for a reason since the COVID-19 pandemic hit. When they're on, PEOPLE ARE GONNA WATCH.

As you can see, Sasha Banks and Bayley are red hot right now. I wonder if an implosion is around the corner.

Looking at the way things stand, it seems like Bayley will be the one to turn on her partner. Sasha Banks is at another level right now and WWE needs to make her the face of their women’s division as soon as possible.
In the absence of Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks might finally get her due.
