Bayley and Sasha Banks have a friendship that’s pretty thick. These two are not only half of WWE’s Four Horsewomen, but have also forged a bond while in NXT that continues strong to this day.
When Bayley went down due to injury it was a shocking deal to pretty much everybody although some saw the writing on the wall that Bayley was legit injured as soon as it happened. After all, Nia Jax isn’t the softest worker in the ring.
Now Sasha Banks is on her way to take Bayley’s place at SummerSlam as the #1 contender but she’ll have to go through Nia Jax first. These two have faced off in the past and it’s gone both ways but The Boss recently said she will avenge Bayley’s injury by topping The Girl Who’s Not Like Most Girls.

Those words must have meant a lot to Bayley as she tweeted “my hero” in reply to Sasha’s backstage promo. The Hugger could have been being sincere or then again maybe it was facetious. It’s hard to tell when you’re only dealing with two written words.
My hero. https://t.co/5KELAV7qU8

Of course, Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss weren’t moved by this impassioned speech in the slightest as they commented about how Banks is benefiting from her best friend’s unfortunate circumstance which makes her no friend at all.
Funny how you benefit from your "best friend's" injury…you're welcome
