Bayley def. Sonya Deville
​
In the lead up to the Wrestlemania Women's Battle Royal things are still tense between Bayley and Sasha Banks, it’s looking more and more like they see it as an opportunity to finally beat each other up — and that may well make them easy pickings for the other Superstars looking to seize their moment.
The fraying friendship between the former champions seemed, at first, to repair itself when Banks came down to the ring following Bayley’s victory over Sonya Deville of Absolution. After The Huggable One rolled up Sonya for the win, she was easy pickings for Paige's crew until The Boss’ arrival evened the odds. Bayley, however, refused to grant Sasha’s demand to raise her hand in a show of gratitude, leading to the second brawl between the two in two weeks — though this tussle was interrupted by Absolution, who seized the opportunity to drop them both and leave the ring with the wind at their backs heading into WrestleMania.

Mandy Rose def. Sasha Banks
​
In the Raw after Wrestlemania things are definitely still tense between Bayley and Sasha Banks. Bayley finally got her own back to Sasha and eliminated her in the battle royal but still was beaten to become the winner.
Absolution crew notched a big win over Sasha Banks, thanks to the fraying relationship between The Boss and Bayley that continued to weigh them both down. Bayley reared her head at a few crucial junctures of Banks’ battle with Mandy Rose of Absolution, stealing her spotlight by making her entrance seconds before the bell and inadvertently cold-cocking The Boss on the outside of the ring after Mandy provoked Bayley into taking a swing. The argument led to a flustered Sasha walking straight into a leaping knee from Rose that won the match, but a chagrined-looking Bayley made her exit before any more damage could be done.

Bayley vs Sasha Banks
​
Things have been tense between longtime friends Bayley and Sasha Banks in recent weeks, and even though they clashed in the first-ever WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal, there’s still a lot of unfinished business between them.
After The Huggable One inadvertently attacked The Boss during Banks’ match against Mandy Rose, Bayley and Sasha battle one-on-one. Will this bout mark the end of their friendship, or will it signal the beginning of their reconciliation?
After the vicious match between the two "best friends" seemed to be at a dramatic point with Sasha seemingly having Bayley trapped in the Bank Statment, the match was interrupted by the arrival of The Riott Squad. The score-settling match between Bayley and Sasha Banks will have to wait. The long-simmering confrontation between the two fraying friends played host to an unceremonious intrusion from The Riott Squad, the three-woman wrecking crew from SmackDown LIVE who ruthlessly attacked the two former Raw Women’s Champions in the middle of their match.
