On the second night of WrestleMania 36, which emanated from the WWE Performance Center, Bayley defended her SmackDown Women's title in a Fatal 5-Way Elimination match against her best friend Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans, Naomi, and Tamina. The ending to the match saw Banks hitting Evans with a Backstabber, followed by Bayley scoring a win to retain her title.

Soon after, The Boss posted a short video on her official Instagram handle, featuring her dog Ryu. The video shows him running away from the camera, with Banks stating in the caption that it's her dog's reaction when she told him that she just lost her fifth straight WrestleMania match. Check out the post below:
Although Banks took the loss in jest as evident from the above post, it must be bugging her that despite being one of the most successful female stars on the roster, she hasn't won a single match at The Show of Shows.
Banks made her WrestleMania debut back in 2016, competing in a Triple Threat match for the Women's title against Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. Flair won the match, despite Banks giving her all in the ring. Banks lost all of her matches at the next three WrestleMania events, and it seemed that she would finally break the losing streak tonight. Unfortunately, Banks' fans would have to wait another year to see her attempting to break the 0-5 streak.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
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.
