#3 Worst: Losing their identities?

We don't like the idea of Bayley and Mickie James becoming background figures

Bayley was once thought of as the next John Cena. Mickie James is a legend, who'll certainly go into the WWE Hall of Fame someday. It's almost tragic to see them booked as Sasha Banks' backup crew. It kills whatever little momentum the two women had.

It's different for Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose, who can benefit from being with an experienced performer like Paige. In the case of Bayley and James, it just proves that WWE has lost faith in these two gifted women.
