RAW and SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch spoke with Sports Illustrated reporter Justin Barrasso recently and Sasha Banks came up as one of the topics.
Banks, a singles champion on NXT and RAW and a past women’s tag team champion, has not appeared with WWE since WrestleMania 35. Some have debated the validity of rumors to what happened at WrestleMania. However, it’s obvious Banks is not happy in her current spot with the company. Though she was reportedly listed as part of WWE’s promotional contingent on the current foreign tour, she did not make the trip across the ocean.
Lynch appeared to try to convince Banks to come back to work with some of her comments to Sports Illustrated. It’s important to note at this point that no one knows for sure if Banks currently wishes to remain off WWE TV or if something is in the works for a surprise return in the future. But Lynch’s comments may hint at a program between the two if Banks returns. Here’s what Lynch said to Sports Illustrated:
“Come fight me, Sasha. At one time, Sasha Banks was the top dog, she was ‘The Boss,’ but Sasha’s fallen from grace. It seems like she can’t hack it. Let’s prove something. I know we’ve had tremendous matches back in NXT, and it’s been an age since we stepped in the ring together, and I would love to again, but this is a whole different kettle of fish. This ain’t ‘The Lasskicker’ anymore, this is ‘The Man.’ I would love to go toe-to-toe, ‘The Man’ vs. ‘The Boss,’ to prove who is the top dog now.”
