WWE SummerSlam 2020: 10 Things That Must Happen

8. Sasha Banks Helps Bayley Retain

There must be a reason why Asuka has two title shots at SummerSlam.

One of those Women's Titles is changing hands - it's just a case of which one. Bayley's SmackDown defence has been clearly positioned as the first match of the two, which suggests that she'll be alright and will continue her dominance of the Friday night scene. She might need a little help from her pal to get the job done.

Bayley does cowardly, opportunistic heel well, so it'd be nice to see her beg off a fired-up Asuka mid-match and tease that she'll be the first champ to fall. Then, Sasha Banks can sprint out, distract everyone's favourite purveyor of the green mist and cost Asuka the chance to win.

It's simple, sure, but it'd be effective. Also, that finish would leave the 'Golden Role Models' open for an upset a bit later on the same card. If WWE want to, they can schedule a quick promo between both title bouts so Bayley and Sasha can gloat.
