After weeks of personal animosity, Lacey Evans was finally supposed to take on Sasha Banks on Friday Night SmackDown… but Banks had other plans.
Instead, The Sassy Southern Belle got SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley, on the TitanTron, informing Evans that Sasha was not here tonight. Bayley and Evans exchanged words before Bayley drove Lacey so over the edge that The Lady of WWE stormed backstage looking for her. Bayley tried to dupe Evans, attacking her from behind right as Evans approached Bayley’s locker room door. However, despite the blindside attack, Lacey battled back, taking the SmackDown Women’s Champion down and almost connecting with the Woman’s Right before a WWE official stepped in as Bayley scurried off.
