Raw preview this week suggests they're doing this story in the most boring way possible, with Sasha and Bayley realising they have to work together to beat the Riott Squad, ugh. So basically the exact same thing they've been doing every week for the last 4 months except with the Riott Squad replacing Absolution.

I'm not sure making the women's storylines as boring and uneventful as the men's is what people wanted, but hey, equality.

I don’t mind the underlying story of Banks and Bayley being so focused on their issues with the other that they keep costing themselves wins. But nearly five months later without the blowoff is getting a bit silly. I’ve learned that WWE doesn’t know how to blow off a feud at all. It took Matt Hardy himself ending the never ending Woken Matt vs Bray Wyatt feud. If there’s any payoff to Bayley/Sasha at all...I’ll be shocked if creative was responsible. They get distracted by shiny things.

Slow building feuds can be great, but they have to...you know...actually build.

Bayley and Sasha have become the wrestling equivalent of Ross and Rachel so gradually I barely even noticed.

Weirdly enough, the 2 women who had arguably the greatest women's match ever are having the worst "feud" in the company right now.

I thought the build leading to Wrestlemania was decent...for a match that wasn't even booked for Wrestlemania.
But since then it doesn't feel like its going anywhere. And the fact they are now feuding with the Riott Squad rather than Absolution feels like really lazy booking.
I'm all for WWE saving this for Summerslam or maybe even Extreme Rules but come up with something more entertaining than this till then please.

There are two ways to go with this - either Sasha finally goes heel, or they both do after Bailey loses. Bailey Gone Badd is money, especially if she's cutely trying too hard.
BAILEY: "I might go out for a drink after the show....a DAMN drink! And who knows, I might even have some sex!" SASHA: "Woahhh easy, Bailey."

hopefully if Alexa is indeed out for a bit they'll finally turn one of them fully heel. I get the feeling they really don't want to turn either of them, but know that they pretty much have to turn one of them. They are both very marketable and sell tons of merchandise, and that a heel turn will cause a downturn on one of their cash cows. So, they are dragging this feud out forever to bleed every cent they can out of them.

I would just walk away from this feud, it lost its steam and then died probably around Royal Rumble.
Just move them on and feud with other people if you don’t want to turn any of them.
Shocking how three year’s after Brooklyn it’s come to this.
