The upcoming draft can make or break careers

#1 Sasha Banks

The Legit Boss needs challenges to thrive

Ever since her return to WWE, Sasha Banks has been nothing short of incredible. She straight up went for ‘The Man’ Becky Lynch and her RAW Women’s Championship. After weeks of brawling, the two locked horns at Hell in a Cell inside the cage.

Even with Becky Lynch retaining her title, no one can discredit The Boss for the fight she put up inside the monstrous cage. During the build-up of their feud, it seemed like she would be the right person to end Lynch’s title reign. That alone speaks volumes about the influence that Banks carries every time she walks in for a match.

It would seem redundant to have her go against Becky Lynch once again unless WWE are planning to book a long-term feud. But again, WWE cannot afford to have her go against The Legit Boss time and save her in-ring persona. That would only lead to Banks being owned again and again. Hence, the only way out is to keep both these Superstar on two different brands.

At SmackDown, Banks can feud with the likes of Charlotte Flair and ultimately, Bayley. A rivalry between the two-real life ‘best-friends’ has been teased for long and now might be the best time to finally bring the plan into action.

Is there any other Superstar who you think should move to SmsckDown? Let us know in the comments section below.
