Outside the ongoing Asuka title confusion, there's some other (more positive) news on the Raw female front.

A quick look at WrestleMania history reveals that WWE have never booked a straight up one-on-one women's match on their biggest show that didn't have some silly stipulation attached or a title on the line. If Sasha Banks and Bayley collide on the main card, they'll make history. Prepare yourselves for more "first ever" hype from WWE before New Orleans.

This time, it's more of a damning insight into the promotion's history than anything else. The only other non-title singles match between women at 'Mania to date? A two-minute scrap between Terri Runnels and The Kat in 2000. As that was billed as a Catfight, it had a stip, and that means Bayley and Sasha are on the verge of another first.

It's about time. Give these women 15-20 minutes after some decent build, and watch them fly.
