The Boss N' Hug Connection Sasha Banks and Bayley have been the most frequent stars on WWE TV this past month. They're among the few who have appeared on RAW, SmackDown, and even NXT as well.

Bayley is a double Champion and will defend the SmackDown Women's Title against Nikki Cross at Extreme Rules. Sasha Banks is one-half of the Women's Tag Team Champions and is set to challenge Asuka for the RAW Women's title at Extreme Rules 2020.

Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE

Bayley faced Asuka in the main event in an incredible Champion vs Champion match. Asuka and Kairi Sane challenged the Champions to a Tag Team title match next week and while Bayley didn't want to defend them, Sasha Banks went against her wishes to accept the match.

It showed the miscommunication in their friendship and WWE is having a slow build to their eventual rivalry. It's going to be interesting to see where their story goes. We don't expect Nikki Cross to beat Bayley at Backlash nor do we expect Sasha Banks to win the RAW Women's Championship at Extreme Rules 2020.

For now, Asuka established herself as The Women's Champion in WWE.
