They are horribly booked on Raw, for sure.
I don't think Sasha has it in her to be a great baby face. Her promos have been really bad since she turned. It might be the scripting partially, as her character always comes off as a spoiled, unlikable brat. They try to make her come off as the cool girl, but there's nothing endearing about her as a result. But her performance probably has a lot to do with it too. As great as she was as a heel, it's not clicking for her as a face right now so maybe she should just flip back.
Bayley is an amazing face, but they've taken away a lot of what makes her work. Her friendship with Sasha means she rarely has to overcome huge odds. She didn't have to struggle too long to win the title. She's not as clean cut as she was on NXT. And the long promos aren't helping her either.
These two were two of my favourite wrestlers on the whole roster a year ago. I marked out for Sasha winning the title and Bayley making her pay per view debut. And of course, I fucking loved their NXT feud. So it's sad that they're just another part of the roster now. WWE's women's division has improved a lot, but it still has a ways to go.
