This week’s SmackDown from the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida kicked off with ‘The Boss’ Sasha Banks making her way out to the ring in the aftermath of her last week’s attack on Bianca Belair.

Last week on SmackDown, Sasha Banks made her long-awaited return to SmackDown since her match at WrestleMania in April. Banks made her way out and saved Belair from Zelina Vega and Carmella.

However, Banks turned on Belair in the main event of that show. She attacked Belair after a successful tag team match, letting her know she is after the SmackDown Women’s title.

This week, Banks made her way out to kick off SmackDown and addressed the situation. The very first thing she said since WrestleMania was “it’s Boss Time on SmackDown” and said that she came back for the spotlight she deserves.

She further promised that she will never let anyone steal that spotlight again as she started playing the video package of how she attacked the EST of WWE.

Banks embarrassed the SmackDown Women’s champion saying that it was so easy for her to expose Bianca and she was watching her all along making mistakes.

‘The Boss’ further said Belair would be nothing without her. There would be no ESPY Award, no chilling with Megan The Stallion, and no WrestleMania 37 main event

 

Banks was soon cut short as Belair made her way out to a huge pop from the WWE Universe. She then dismisses the idea that she’d be nothing without Banks.

Bianca Belair says “yes” to Sasha Banks

The EST reminded everyone how she begged Belair to pick her after she won the Royal Rumble so they could headline WrestleMania together. She taunted her and asked if she’s going to take another 4 months off.

Banks then made her way to the top of the announce table and claimed “she can do what she wants, when she wants, because she’s a legend”. Belair then admitted that she is one of the greatest to stand in the ring.
