Who thought Lacey Evans could be a babyface?

Seriously though, between her sassy one-liners and the way she laid out Becky Lynch on RAW night after WrestleMania 35, how could anyone see her as a babyface? Beyond that, how could the WWE see her as a babyface after what she and Baron Corbin did to Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch later that year?

If nothing else, there was a lot that Evans had to redeem herself for and it seems like the company is doing just that! Not only is that evident by the fact that she is now working as a babyface against Bayley and Sasha Banks on SmackDown, but also by how they are incorporating her family into it as well.

With that being said, WWE is going all out to make fans sympathize with Evans and while it hasn't resulted in a straight-up win yet, it feels like it's coming sooner or later. Maybe WWE could even decide to have her beat Bayley for the SmackDown Women's title, thus establishing a new Superstar on the Blue brand.

It's safe to say that Lacey Evans is gaining a lot of momentum right now and it feels like an intentional way to build-up to a match between her and Bayley at Royal Rumble. It might even be what sets her on a course to heading into WrestleMania 36 with the SmackDown Women's title.
