Although they went on a hiatus following their title loss at WrestleMania 35 in April 2019 due to Banks' absence from WWE, they reunited in September shortly after her return, this time as heels.
This made them the first tag team or stable to hold all three titles at the same time, making them the only women's champions across both the Raw and SmackDown brands until SummerSlam the following month.
[1] Their first occurrence teaming up was on a February 14, 2013 NXT house show in Tampa, Florida, in an unsuccessful effort against Audrey Marie and Charlotte.
[3] Banks won the NXT Women's Championship from Charlotte on February 11, 2015, at TakeOver: Rival, in a fatal four-way match also involving Bayley and Lynch.
[6] A year later, while feuding with Charlotte and Dana Brooke, Sasha Banks announced a mystery partner for a match against her rivals at Battleground on July 24, 2016.
At the event, the mystery partner was revealed to be Bayley, who teamed with Sasha Banks to defeat Charlotte and Brooke, in what was the duo's first on-screen team-up.
[8] Meanwhile, Bayley and Banks would become regular tag team partners on house shows via a three-way alliance with Alicia Fox which lasted from September 16, 2016, to February 5, 2017, during which the three mostly feuded with Flair, Brooke and Nia Jax in winning efforts.
[15][16] At the end of 2017, Banks, Bayley and Mickie James started a feud with the debuting faction Absolution (Paige, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville), who continuously attacked them.
[26] On the March 26 episode of Raw, after weeks of animosity between the two, including Bayley betraying Banks during their matches,[27][28] they brawled backstage and had to be separated.
[43][44][45] After a short hiatus from the ring due to an undisclosed injury, Banks returned to WWE television in October and took part in the first-ever all women's pay-per-view Evolution, where she teamed with Bayley and Natalya in a winning effort against The Riott Squad.
[55][56] Banks would return to WWE on the August 12 episode of Raw as a heel, attacking Natalya and donning a new blue hairstyle.
[57] On the September 2 episode of Raw, while Banks was attacking her future Clash of Champions opponent Becky Lynch with a chair, Bayley appeared to interfere, only to attack Lynch with the chair herself, turning heel for the first time in her career and reestablishing her tag team with Banks (although they would not use the "Boss 'n' Hug Connection" monicker anymore).
During the following months, they defended the Tag Team titles against the likes of Bliss and Cross (SD), The IIconics (Raw), and Tegan Nox and Shotzi Blackheart (NXT).
[68] On the September 4 episode of SmackDown, following a loss to Jax and Baszler in a rematch, Bayley turned on Banks by brutalizing her in the ring, thereby disbanding their team.
For example, although Sasha Banks is a five-time Raw Women's Champion, only one of those reigns occurred while officially being in a tag team with Bayley.
