4 Predictions for WWE Raw: February 20, 2017
By Grant Mannis
Will Sasha Finally Turn Heel?
As Bayley stood tall as the new RAW Women’s Champion in last week’s main event, one couldn’t help but notice the satisfaction etched on Sasha Banks’ face. After months of having Charlotte inch her way ahead of the Boss, in one fell swoop, all that she worked for was taken away. It was an incredible moment for Bayley to emerge on top, but Banks will likely remind the new champion that the victory was due to her interference.
Assuming that Bayley takes exception to that comment, things could get heated rather quickly between the two friends. Bayley has always been known to be an underdog, and no one would like to hear that they’re at the pinnacle of their career due to someone else. One does has to wonder, though; could Bayley have defeated Charlotte had Banks remained on the sidelines?
Should things go badly between the two, this would give Charlotte a grand opportunity to regain her title. Despite the fact that RAW has seen way too many title changes in the Women’s Division as of late, this one would make sense. Not so much because it would progress the belief that Bayley can’t achieve the big win on her own, but because Charlotte is undefeated in pay-per-view singles action. That streak shouldn’t come to an end until WrestleMania, which means that either she regains the title at Fastlane or Bayley and Banks face Charlotte and Dana Brooke in a tag match.
