#1 Must do -- Inevitable rivalry with Sasha Banks

Is it too selfish to hope that a pair of best friends have a fallout?

We all know this is coming. WWE have teased a rivalry between the two best friends for a long time but they never went through with it on the main roster. Remember when they were seeing a counselor to help them work on their friendship? It may not have worked according to the plan back then but things can be different now.

We have seen the kind of magic these two can create when they share the squared circle. Look no further than NXT Takeover: Respect 2015 where Bayley and Sasha Banks locked horns in the main event. Bayley defended her title in arguably the best match of the year.

They can recreate history together if booked properly. They have a lot of history to create tension between their run as best friends.

One of the ways WWE can go about it is by having her cost Sasha Banks a win during the women's 5-on-5 Survivor Series elimination match. Following the match, Banks might attack Bayley which will fuel the tension between the two and mark the beginning of a historic rivalry.
