## History

### Formation and beginnings (2015)

In May 2015, Naomi aligned herself with her real life cousin-in-law Tamina Snuka, after having been outnumbered by The Bella Twins (Brie and Nikki Bella) on multiple occasions. Tamina and Naomi went on to defeat The Bella Twins in a tag team match at Payback.

### Divas Revolution (2015–2016)

On the July 13 episode of Raw, after weeks of being outnumbered by The Bella Twins and their ally Alicia Fox, WWE authority figure Stephanie McMahon called for a "revolution" in the WWE Divas division and introduced then debuting NXT Women's ChampionSasha Banks as an ally to Naomi and Tamina, after bringing in Charlotte and Becky Lynch to ally with Paige, leading to a brawl between the three teams.

At Battleground, a triple threat match took place with Sasha Banks representing Team B.A.D. against Charlotte of Team Paige (later known as Team PCB), and Brie Bella for Team Bella in a losing effort while Charlotte picked up the victory. The following night on the July 20 episode of Raw, Naomi and Sasha Banks were victorious in a tag team match against Paige and Becky Lynch. The three teams would ultimately face off at SummerSlam in a three team elimination match, where Team B.A.D. were the first team to be eliminated courtesy of Team Bella when Tamina was pinned by Brie, and Team PCB would win the match.

After defeating then Divas ChampionNikki Bella by submission in a non-title match on the August 17 episode of Raw, Banks participated in the first ever Divas number one contender's Beat the Clock challenge, in which she fought Paige to a time limit draw and Charlotte was named the number one contender. Following this, Banks began a short feud with Paige and defeated her twice on the September 7 and 14 episodes of Raw, and fought to a no contest on the September 10 episode of SmackDown.

Although she lost in a fatal four-waynumber one contender's match for Charlotte's Divas Championship in November, Banks started a winning streak, defeating the likes of Brie Bella Alicia Fox, and Becky Lynch, whom she again defeated after distractions by Naomi and Tamina on the TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs kickoff show on December 13.

### Banks' split and initial dissolution (2016)

Banks returned at the 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.
