Michael Cole keeps talking about how Sasha Banks and Bayley are on the verge of splitting up almost every week on WWE SmackDown, much to the annoyance of Corey Graves. But another thing that he keeps mentioning almost every week is the fact that Bayley has been the SmackDown Women's Champion for the longest time. And one knows from how much it is being hammered into the minds of the WWE Universe that it will be an integral part of the Bayley and Sasha Banks story, moving forward.

Listen, you don't get to become the longest-reigning SmackDown Women's Champion without running through everyone in the roster from Lacey Evans to Tamina Snuka. If you were to scan the current roster for potential opponents for Bayley, the only real opponent that comes to mind is Sasha Banks. And we know that WWE doesn't want to do Bayley vs. Sasha Banks until the breakup angle has played to the point of fruition. So, why not potentially have them in a tag team match at Backlash (presumably, this is the direction they will be going in)?
