A twitter war broke out over the ongoing rivalry between Sasha banks and Alicia Fox. Some might consider it as not worthy of stretching but WWE creative had something different in mind and might book it for a PPV match after what just transpired.
The proceedings started with a match between Sasha Banks and Alicia Fox on this week’s Raw. As a major upset, Fox picked up the win against Sasha. Her boyfriend, Noam Dar was present at the ringside to provide the distraction. It allowed her to connect with the Scissors Kick to pin The Boss clean on live television.
Now, most of the fans complained about the outcome of the match which was an irrelevant way to carry forward the storyline between them. WWE Universe thinks this one as a complete dud, for sure and has the least interest in it. In fact, a fan was escorted out for playing beach ball during that match.
People need2 have a broader viewpoint. There’s a story being told here & THAT’S what is drawing me in. What if this was why Sasha lost…1/3

… This wasn’t mind games, it was mocking. It’s underestimating ur opponent & fueling her determination to win. 2/3 https://t.co/PcmrRvrBpG

Thats just one of many possibilities of what could have happened. But it’s got people reacting and talking. That’s great booking to me. 3/3

However, former Divas champion Melina had some different opinions about it. She thought it was WWE creative’s brilliance to involve the audience into the feud with this sudden twist. The win from Foxy was totally uncalled for and so the fans could relate to this.
But, the comments took a nasty turn after Lana completely misunderstood those and stated that Melina was insulting Sasha Banks. The fans also took it in that way making things worse.
Let me clarify when I liked @RealMelina tweets. I think Sasha is a game changer wrestler. I also think this gets more eyes on the story ?? https://t.co/PZuMh3vm4E

Lana also pointed out that Melina might be trying to garner more attentions from the social media with these tweets which are otherwise impossible for the former one.

At the end, Sasha herself came to the conversation, ending the controversy. She did not point out to anyone, directly. But, it was directed to both the women chattering on twitter. She concluded by saying that her in-ring abilities speak for herself. She does not need anyone’s approval.
It is expected that Sasha and Alicia’s rivalry is far from over and will culminate a match at Extreme Rules PPV. We have to wait for further ongoing over this matter.`
