Sasha Banks and Bayley currently hold all the Women's gold on RAW and SmackDown
With tonight's victory, Sasha Banks has etched her name in WWE history. Banks and Bayley are the first-ever female WWE Superstar duo to carry singles belts on their shoulders, and the Tag Team titles at the same time.
Sasha Banks had taken a long hiatus from the ring last year after WrestleMania and made her return on the RAW after SummerSlam. Soon after, she joined forces with Bayley again and the two have been wreaking havoc on the WWE women's division ever since.
Bayley is currently the SmackDown Women's Champion, and Banks holds the RAW Women's title. With the Women's Tag Team belts on their shoulders as well, the duo currently holds all the women's division gold on RAW and SmackDown.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
