WWE SmackDown Preview: Major addition to Roman Reigns' title match at WrestleMania 37, unseen footage to be used in ongoing feud? (Mar 26th, 2021)

#3 Sasha Banks confirms heel turn on WWE SmackDown

Sasha Banks might pay for slapping Bianca Belair at Fastlane

WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks teamed up with Bianca Belair to challenge Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler for their Women’s tag team titles at Fastlane. Jax and Baszler managed to retain their titles after Banks was underwhelmingly pinned. This led to an irate Belair blaming Banks for their loss at the pay-per-view.

Sasha Banks then finally responded by slapping Belair for challenging her in-ring dominance. The creative has been planting the seeds of her potential heel turn on WWE SmackDown for the last few weeks. Banks now appears to be more arrogant and is looking for a way to dominate Belair before the two face each other for the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship at WrestleMania.

Fans are eagerly waiting for their WrestleMania feud to kickstart on WWE SmackDown. The creative have limited time to add more intensity to this title match. Belair is eventually expected to win the title, and she needs a lot of momentum on her side ahead of the next pay-per-view. This will help transform her into the top babyface of the Blue brand by WrestleMania 37.
