#2. A different direction for the Champion?

Bayley and Sasha Banks have a bit of a different direction from the look of things this May/June and it's not going to involve the SmackDown Women's Championship. It all started with the Tag Team Championship summit, where Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross hosted The New Day to talk about their accomplishments.

It was SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley and Sasha Banks who interrupted and there was a verbal back-and-forth which was won by the Tag Team Champions - mainly Alexa Bliss. However, that would be all that Alexa Bliss won on the night.

She ended up facing a woman who she had a past rivalry with - Sasha Banks. It's clear when two Superstars have great in-ring chemistry and Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks have exactly that.

After interference from Bayley and Nikki Cross that led to a scramble, Sasha Banks took advantage and pinned one-half of the Tag Team Champions. It's now confirmed that The Boss N' Hug connection will be next in line for a Tag Team title shot next week on SmackDown.

The best course of action would be to put Sonya Deville vs Lacey Evans as a #1 contender's match on Backlash, but we don't expect that to happen.
