#3. Worst: The SmackDown Women's Championship feud at Fastlane 2021

While the outcome of the Fastlane opening match was correct, the way it played it out preceding the pay-per-view has left a sour taste in the mouths of some fans. The SmackDown Women's Championship feud between Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair should be a straightforward one.

Instead, WWE chose to involve them in the women's tag team title picture and things got unnecessarily complicated with the involvement of Reginald, Nia Jax, and Shayna Baszler.

The two WrestleMania opponents teamed up again at Fastlane but they failed to capture the tag team titles after Banks got pinned. This led to Sasha Banks getting heated with Belair and slapping her before calling her a 'rookie' and flaunting the SmackDown Women's Championship.

It was a bit of tension to heat up their rivalry, but is it beyond saving? Now that Sasha Banks is being presented as the "heel of the feud" (meaning that she actually hasn't turned heel yet, but is simply taking that role for now), Bianca Belair has a high chance of getting her WrestleMania moment.
