7 Quick Fixes To Save WWE SummerSlam 2018

7. You're A Brooklyn Baby, You Know How To Love

Bayley and Sasha Banks' stop-start rivalry took a curious turn this week when 'The Boss' confessed her love to 'The Hugger' with such vigour that it was impossible not to catch the inference.

Never ones to shy away from on-the-nose scripting, WWE shot directly for the heart - Bayley's, to be specific. Whilst it's important not to criticise the attempt on the company's part to promote homosexuality (and, really, any form of diversity) as part of a wider move to catch the company up with modern societal attitudes, it's disconcerting that this version of the organisation would attempt to tackle it.

This is a wrestling company that cannot coherently book wrestling storylines. Babyfaces are heels, heels are babyfaces and careers career off cliffs thanks to slapdash writing servicing the whims of one ageing white billionaire at the expense of all others.

It's subsequently why Sasha manipulatively snapping once and for all after her 'revelation' would be the safest track to tread. The company have failed so profoundly with just about everything they've tried with the former NXT pair, but a powerful swerve turn just a few weeks away from their return to the place they cemented their legacy (and transformed North American women's wrestling for good) would make worthy use of a weary twist.
