SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks vs. Carmella

At WWE TLC, Sasha Banks will put her SmackDown Women’s Title on the line against Carmella.

For weeks, “The Untouchable One” has unleashed a series of sneak attacks on The Boss. In response, Banks surprised Mella during one of her backstage vignettes and unleashed an all-out assault of her own, locking her in the Bank Statement until she was pulled away by WWE personal.

This resulting interview between the two of them had to be carried out with the two Superstars in separate locations due to the high probability that things would turn volatile. Out of that confrontation, a showdown was established for the WWE TLC pay-per-view.

Six-time World Champion Sasha Banks is truly a dangerous titleholder, making history time and time again whether it be in Hell in a Cell, a WWE Iron Woman Match, or simply in a one-on-one contest for the ages. Nevertheless, despite the glamour of Carmella, there is also no denying that Mella is still money. She boasts an impressive title resume of her own as a former SmackDown Women’s Champion with wins over elite competitors like and Charlotte Flair and Asuka.

Will Carmella prove untouchable against The Boss? Don’t miss WWE TLC, streaming live Sunday, Dec. 20, at 7 ET/4 PT on WWE Network.
