10 Biggest WWE 2018 Mistakes

9. Bayley-Sasha feud

As of this video going live, Bayley and Sasha are best friends, but that friendship has been tested, oh, around 700 times this year.

For around half of the year, we were waiting for one to turn on the other, and to give WWE some kind of credit, at least they didn’t make it obvious who was going to turn on who.

One week it looked like Bayley was going to turn, and then the next it looked like Banks might make a statement by turning on Bayley. This was an effective storyline…until they did it every week for several months.

Not only did Sasha eliminate Bayley from the Women’s Royal Rumble, but she helped Bayley get eliminated from the elimination chamber. FINALLY, it looked like the endless story was over, as during an episode of Raw in June, Bayley viciously attacked Banks after a match in a fit of rage. The crowd popped huge and there was a tangible sense of relief that the turn had finally happened.

Don’t be silly. That wasn’t a turn! All they need is counselling from Dr Shelby, the same man who helped Daniel Bryan and Kane sort out their differences in their team Hell No! Days. And look how that turned out.

These comedy skits majorly sucked with both Banks and Bayley struggling with the comedy timing and what they had to work with wasn’t much better, the scripts were dreadful.

The whole ‘feud’ is a perfect example of WWE making it all up as they go along without much future planning, because the two women eventually decided that they were best friends after all and are now a tag team in a division without tag titles…
