no contest on the September 10 episode of
SmackDown. Banks wrestled her final match in NXT at
NXT TakeOver: Respect, losing to Bayley in WWE's first-ever women's 30-minute
Iron Man match, with a score of two falls to three. Although she lost in a

Royal Rumble pay-per-view on January 24, 2016, after about a month off television, attacking Charlotte and Becky Lynch after their Divas Championship match, showing her intentions to challenge for the championship. Prior to a match with Lynch on the February 1 episode of
Raw, Banks claimed that she was "on her own", signaling that she had moved on from the group, at which Naomi and Tamina declared that there were no hard feelings; however, during Sasha's match with Lynch, the duo attacked Banks until she was saved by Lynch, turning Banks into a
face in the process. The feud between Banks, Naomi and Tamina would continue throughout February, and would lead to a tag team match at
Fastlane on February 21, where Naomi and Tamina lost. event in April 2016 After their feud with Banks, Team B.A.D. formed a brief alliance with

Main Event. The following week on
Raw, they accompanied Emma to her match against Paige, where Emma won, after which they attacked Paige's allies (Alicia Fox, Brie Bella and
Natalya) before they were saved by a returning
Eva Marie. As a result, a
10-Diva tag team match between the two newly dubbed alliances, "Team
Total Divas" and "Team B.A.D. & Blonde", was announced for the
WrestleMania 32's pay-per-view pre-show. At the event on April 3, they were defeated by Team Total Divas after Naomi
submitted to Brie Bella. After appearing sporadically since WrestleMania, Team B.A.D. disbanded in early May, when Tamina underwent knee surgery in order to repair torn ligaments, and Naomi began filming
The Marine 5: Battleground, and was injured with a torn ankle tendon. Both Naomi and Tamina would be drafted to
SmackDown (Naomi during
2016 WWE draft, and Tamina during the
2017 WWE Superstar Shake-up).
WWE Women's Tag Team Champions (2022) On the February 25, 2022, edition of
SmackDown, Naomi announced that her and Sasha Banks were going to challenge for the
WWE Women's Tag Team Championship, thus reuniting the team as a duo. On the following episode of
Raw, reigning champions
Carmella and
Queen Zelina would accept their challenge, consequently setting up the bout for
WrestleMania 38. Over the following weeks, the respective teams of
Rhea Ripley and
Liv Morgan, and Natalya and
Shayna Baszler, would be added to the bout, thereby making it a
fatal four-way tag team match. At the event, Banks and Naomi were successful in their pursuit, as Banks put an end to her streak of WrestleMania losing efforts and entered her record-tying third reign with the title. During the May 16 episode of
Raw, Banks and Naomi reportedly walked out after a meeting with
Vince McMahon due to a creative dispute. WWE released an official statement, in which the company stated Banks and Naomi "walked into WWE Head of Talent Relations
John Laurinaitis' office with their suitcases in hand, placed their tag team championship belts on his desk and walked out". The two were originally booked for the show's main event, which had to be reworked. Banks subsequently left WWE in the summer and would later debut at
Wrestle Kingdom 17 under the name Mercedes Moné. Naomi confirmed she was no longer with WWE in March 2023 until she would return to the company in January 2024. == Championships and accomplishments ==
