10 Live Observations From WWE Raw Live Event Barclays Center
5. Sasha Banks, Charlotte, And Bayley Are Superstars
The first match back from intermission saw Sasha Banks, Bayley, and Liv Morgan take on Charlotte Flair, Nia Jax, and Dana Brooke. The bout was entertaining and expertly laid out, with Banks eventually scoring the win for her team when she made Dana Brooke tap out to the Banks Statement.
Most notable about the match was both the performance - and the reception - of the top three stars in Raw's women's division. It's no surprise that Sasha, Charlotte, and Bayley delivered the goods in the ring, but it was nice to see them get the recognition they deserved for it. Fans were really excited to see Banks and Bayley, both of whom were hugely over as babyfaces.
Again, Banks and Bayley easily have all the talent it takes to get over and then some, but their usage has been far from ideal. Three times, Banks lost the Raw Women's Title nearly as soon as she won it, and Bayley hasn't been given the character spotlight she had in NXT. It's nice to see that both women are still beloved by the fans.
