#1 A stunning double turn takes place at Extreme Rules

Right, so this probably is the least likely outcome on this list, but a double turn between Sasha Banks and Asuka at Extreme Rules would be a radical booking decision, to say the least. It may be challenging to execute without being in front of a proper crowd, but WWE's Performance Center trainees could ram home the message of the double turn with their reaction.

Also, Asuka and Banks are two elite level performers who are more than capable of telling a story of such impact. The Empress of Tomorrow could use her destructive strikes to keep her opponent down. It also helps that the Legit Boss is great at garnering sympathy from fans. Asuka may have only recently turned babyface and is thriving in that role, but she was equally brilliant as a heel.

She would make it work, even if it is for shock value. The aforementioned manner of her victories in title matches could be a hint towards this. Also, on the latest episode of RAW Talk, Asuka received a challenge from her tag team partner, Kairi Sane, provided she wins at Extreme Rules.

This could all lead to a big heel turn for Asuka and a hot program with Sane for the title, possibly the latter's final one in WWE. Asuka could also face other babyfaces on the roster like Liv Morgan and Bianca Belair, both of whom could become major stars on RAW.

However, the main story would be the dynamic between heel Bayley and newly babyface Sasha Banks, still holding the Women's Tag Team Titles together. Again, this angle between the two best friends is all about layers, subtle details and a slow-burn.

A face turn for Sasha Banks at Extreme Rules could lead to further discord between herself and Bayley, possibly fast-tracking their eventual blowoff match. This is one way to ensure it happens at SummerSlam, as unlikely as it is.

Whatever happens at Extreme Rules between Asuka and Sasha Banks, the future is very bright for the women of WWE.
