Didn't she recently have knee surgery?
And when the hell is Bayley coming back?

Sasha has seemed to confirm on Twitter that she hasn’t been released. She said this is why she stays of social media and that people will believe anything they read. Got a link? I looked on her Twitter but she must have deleted it cuz I'm seeing nothing from the past month |

I have seen a couple sources that have insanely high accuracy rates confirm she's been released. One said it actually happened weeks ago. Granted, nothing is ever 100%, but the dude is more accurate than any dirt sheet reporter around, even the good ones.

I dont quite understand some of the reactions on social media. I can understand being unhappy about your favorite being released but quotes like "WWE needs Sasha Banks, Sasha Banks doesnt need WWE" or "Sasha is the biggest star in WWE" & "shes a Hollywood star like The Rock"
Jesus christ. She's replaceable. Everyone is replaceable....Your favorite no matter who it is...is replaceable. People really think she's going to another company, whether AEW or Impact and its just going to randomly explode to new heights. I say this as a fan of womens wrestling...Women dont draw! They're not needle movers. Its why things like WOW fizzle on 3rd rate cable channels.

I think alot of wrestling fans overrate Sasha's mainstream stardom. She had a bit part in a Star Wars show, she isn't the Rock.

I think if she goes to Hollywood she will be a C talent possibly a b but she is no where near the rock or cena for that matter. She definitely shot herself in the foot with this stunt. |

If true thank god. I never cared for her as a wrestler. I always felt she was way overrated. She’s ok, but nothing she did ever made me go wow. Meaning there was never a performance where once her match ended where I would still think about it after the show ended. She had solid matches but never anything I ever thought was spectacular.
She was good in the Mandalorian. That was actually a figure of hers that I did want to buy.

There’s a difference between knowing your worth and being spoiled. Sasha was spoiled. Moxley knew his worth so he left on good terms to go prove it elsewhere. The biggest difference here is that Moxely was not seen at the level of Rollins and Reigns in the eyes of WWE. He was never going to be The Guy, or even at Orton’s level. He was a reliable guy that was popular and can be thrown into the main event when they wanted. He believed he was more than that so he left in the best way possible to do so. Sasha was not that. She was and has always been seen as a star in WWE’s eyes. Just because she briefly was not in the main event, she felt the need to unprofessionally walk out. Now she potentially is out of a job. And to anyone who says AEW will take her, then good, because the second she’s not champion, she’ll walk out of there too not to change the subject but i thought he actually left on bad terms. did he not? if not, thats a very good thing, i was just curious because i thought i saw somewhere that he wasnt allowed back. i could be wrong |

I don’t recall him ever just walking out and not performing. |

Sasha really overestimated her worth here. Walking out is something you only get away with once. Her against Bianca or Rousey are huge matches, regardless if she loses. Elias and Baron Corbin lose every week but they don't walk out. Sasha won the championship at Wrestlemania and gets shitty because she has to lose a match. Send her to AEW Dark or Impact.

I’ve never liked Sasha. Never saw what a lot see in her. She’s comes across very smug and entitled.
She gets no sympathy from me.

My feeling at this point is don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out Sasha. She's a prime example of a wrestler that bought way too much into her own hype. Between the matches in NXT with Bayley and being part of the "Four Hosrsewomen," she let the ego start to grow. Now is Sasha talented? Sure, but she's not the best in the world, or even in WWE. And it's not like the Boss persona is some ground breaking character, and she's been riding on that since NXT. At least with Bayley and Becky, they've evolved and changed their characters, while Banks has just been "The Boss" since I believe 2013. Now if she plans to keep wrestling, sure she'll easily find a new home, whether it's AEW or somewhere else, but how long will it be when she's not getting featured to the level she thinks she deserves and starts the diva behavior all over again? Or you know what Sasha, trying the move to Hollywood, and find out you're not as good as acting as you think you are, simply because you had a side kick role on two episodes of the Mandalorian where you had a few lines. Usually in situation of wrestler vs. WWE, butting heads over the creative path, I side with the wrestler, but this is a rare one, where I'm on the company's side.

Sorry to get off topic but reading the Moxley stuff in this thread just reminds me how funny I think it is/was that he was so upset that Vince wouldn’t let him use all his “great ideas” which is obviously death match stuff.
That’s not great ideas. It was cool in the 90’s. But it’s 2022 and you’re not going to revolutionize wrestling or draw in more fans because you want to use chainsaws in a match.

It makes me think of when whatever guy gets released from WWE and people online are like "I can't wait for so and so on the indies/AEW! They're gonna be unleased!" A lot of them are? Some flop *cough* EC3 *cough*. But some do feel like an unleashed version of what you've seen. As great as Daniel Bryan is, American Dragon Bryan Danielson is the unleashed version of it. And it's freaking awesome. I could care less about Mox's death match crap too, I hate death matches. But, Mox running through NJPW, etc? Hell yes. FTR? Oh hell yes. Some are just different versions of what they already were. There's nothing insanely different about this Jericho compared to WWE Jericho outside of it being a different gimmick and him having essentially total control of his lines. But it doesn't feel like an "unleashed Jericho". It just feels like a different Jericho. Some people are going to thrive more under a WWE system. Honestly, Cody is probably one of them. Some need the creative freedom and need to be unleashed. Hell Lio Rush. The man can't function tied down anywhere, he needs to be his own person and completely independent, and that's when he's at his best. You say this like those fans are idiots, but in a lot of cases they're bang on the money. |

As much as I'm a fan of people having control over their own character and direction, I will concede that if House of Black is all Malakai Black's doing then maybe some people are better off getting creatively stifled.  |

So pretty much the majority of wrestlers, and backstage personal, including the higher ups, past and present. How many times have our favorites screwed up, and gotten away with fireable offenses dozens of times, only to be rewarded with opportunity after opportunity, title win after title win, simply because they’re popular, or big draws for the company(s). Must be nice… |

I'd venture to guess he's not in favor of a 17 month feud with Death Triangle with a 2 month side of Fuego mixed in. I think it would come off much better if he was in a feud more about him and one guy as opposed to all of them against 3 other people. He had his moments against Cody when he came in, but they never really unleashed him as a singles guy the way I wish they would. |
