A lot of people are under the assumption that a program between Sasha Banks and Bayley is the way to go for WWE. While that certainly may be the case down the line, possibly at WrestleMania, and while certainly, they have teased a split several times already, it does seem like Sasha Banks and Bayley will remain a cohesive unit for the time being especially since The Boss is now the new WWE RAW Women's Champion.

It would make sense for Sasha Banks to lose the title shot, in this instance, if the plan for her was to go up against Bayley because she would be jealous of her friend who had 2 titles. However, because the two of them are WWE Women's Tag Team Champions as well, at the moment, it makes sense for them to stick together as they also hold the WWE RAW and SmackDown Women's titles as well.

Banks' WWE RAW Women's Championship win was WWE's way of saying that both women rule the roost in the company at the moment.
