Sasha Banks and Bayley's long-term storyline has resulted in a match inside WWE's hellacious cell structure at the aforementioned Pay-Per-View. At least that is supposed to be the plan, but Bayley introduced a last-minute twist in her feud with Sasha by not signing the contract to make their Hell in a Cell match official.

Banks signed the contract first and cut a promo highlighting how she stuck by Bayley's side from NXT to the main roster, that is until Bayley changed their equation by turning against her.

It was previously established that either Bayley or Sasha could have turned on each other at any given moment, so Sasha saying that she had good intentions for her friendship with Bayley on last night's WWE SmackDown was a bit odd.

Apart from that, it will be interesting to see when and how exactly Bayley will sign the contract. In recent memory, Roman Reigns manipulated the circumstances of a Triple Threat Match contract to become the new WWE Universal Champion, perhaps Bayley could have a similar trick planned for Hell in a Cell.
