#3 The leading women of WWE, Bayley and Sasha Banks

Just like Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, Bayley and Sasha Banks are two WWE Superstars who are good friends in real life. The two Superstars have teamed up on countless occasions and were the first-ever WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.

While they’ve had great moments together on-screen, they have also enjoyed great rivalries against each other on a few occasions. During their time in NXT, they had a huge rivalry for the NXT Women’s Championship which led to a stunning match between the two women in 2015 at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn.

From there on, the two women have had rivalries on a few occasions, and are once again gearing up for a big feud on WWE SmackDown. Speaking to Sports Illustrated, Bayley expressed her desire to face her best friend Banks at WrestleMania 37.

“I think we can. We’ve bounced ideas off each other for as long as we’ve known each other, and we learn from each other so much. With all of our ideas and how much we are trusted by the people backstage, I think it’s possible. It would be challenging, but I think that would be so cool.
Someday, I hope we do get to work together again. She’s my favourite person to be in the ring with, obviously, so I would be down to try.”

The two women have recently enter into a feud, just months after holding all the women’s gold, and we will likely see this rivalry go on for a long time.
