Some massive news for Sasha Banks just dropped, so we’ll check out the details of what’s
happening there.
We’ll also see what’s going on with Becky Lynch, Margot Robbie’s comments on John
Cena, and more
Let’s start things off with the big news for Sasha Banks
For the last six and half months, everything has been completely silent regarding Sasha’s
return to pro wrestling
It was stated that Sasha wouldn’t be accepting any bookings for actual wrestling appearances
until 2023 and that’s basically where everything left off at
But now some big news has been reported by PW Insider
Their report claims that Sasha Banks is set to make an appearance at New Japan Pro Wrestling’s
“Wrestle Kingdom 17” show on January 4th, 2023
It’s unknown if it’ll be an actual in-ring appearance, if she’ll interact with anyone,
or if she’ll simply just be sitting ringside for the event
No one knows the actual details for her role, but the main thing that’s being reported
is that she will be at the show
The idea of Sasha going to NJPW really started picking up steam back in October after both
Sasha and Kyrie Sane acknowledged a fan made graphic for a match between the two of them
in NJPW
Sasha posted it to her Instagram story, and Kyrie Sane reposted it to her own Twitter
page
And in the few weeks that followed those reposts by both stars, Kyrie became the first ever
IWGP Women's Champion
So now it really builds an even bigger stage for this dream matchup if Sasha arrives to
challenge Kyrie for her title
Sasha Banks herself has not wrestled a single match since a WWE live event show back in
May, days before the walkout
But Sasha has been posting several videos of herself training in the ring, keeping herself
fresh for wherever she will continue her wrestling career at
There’s still no actual word on where Sasha will fully end up at, but this report lets
us know that Sasha could at least have a mini program kicking off in NJPW during the first
few days of the new year

Margot Robbie and John Cena spent a lot of time together during the filming of their
DC film that was released in 2021
And during the press run for the movie, Margot Robbie discussed how much of a wrestling fan
she used to be and how John Cena was always her favorite.
So it was surreal for her to have the opportunity to work with him for this DC project
Well Margot recently spoke with Chris Van Vliet, who happens to do a lot of wrestling
interviews as well, and he asked her if John Cena was still her favorite
She had this to say about John Cena, quote:
“He is [still my favorite].
He is so with the hype, he is the best.
I love him, I really love him, even though you can’t see him.”
End quote
As far as the latest goes with John Cena…
2022 was the first year in a very long time that Cena didn’t wrestle a single match
for WWE
All he had was one single WWE appearance for the entire year and that took place on June
27th for his WWE anniversary celebration
But the popular belief over the last few months is that there’s a really strong chance that
John Cena does take part in Wrestlemania 39 for a match
maybe we’re just a few months away from another John Cena return that will lead towards
a big Wrestlemania match for the legendary WWE superstar
So there’s potentially a lot to look forward to there for the immediate WWE future of John
Cena

Becky Lynch is still only a few months out from suffering a separated shoulder
She missed just around four months of action and was able to return in time to take part
in the War Games match
Becky Lynch recently spoke with The Verge to talk about her feelings before her first
War Games match and also revealed that her shoulder still isn’t fully healed, she had
this to say, quote:
“It felt amazing to be out in front of the crowd again and how electric that was, in
such a wild capacity as WarGames.
That’s a match that I’ve never done before, and it’s a very daunting match.
You’ve got two rings, you’ve got a giant cage and anything goes.
Truth be told, my shoulder still isn’t feeling right.
So to say I was nervous is probably a bit of an understatement.
But once you get out there, once you get in front of the crowd, and you feel that energy,
then you forget everything else.
There’s not another feeling like it.”
End quote
So Becky Lynch revealed there that the shoulder still isn’t exactly one hundred percent,
but the energy and life from the crowds just fuels her with adrenaline to push through
As far as things with Becky Lynch goes, she’s currently at the start of a feud with Bayley
and Damage Control
Damage Control prevented Becky Lynch from winning her on match on the December 5th edition
of Raw and further advancing in the mini number one contender’s tournament
So Becky Lynch will most likely cost Bayley her match in the tournament and this feud
will continue from there
With buzz and rumors going around that Charlotte Flair may return to challenge Bianca Belair
at Wrestlemania 39, fans wonder if Becky Lynch could jump over to Smackdown and challenge
Ronda Rousey for the Smackdown women’s title during Wrestlemania season
So that’ll be something to keep your eyes out for as well

Some big news has just been released for Bray Wyatt
At the time of this recording, Bray Wyatt has yet to actually compete in a match since
returning, but some big news just dropped regarding Bray’s return to WWE live events
Bray Wyatt has just been confirmed and advertised for WWE’s MSG show on December 26th
This marks the first time that Bray Wyatt will appear at a live event since returning
to WWE
The WWE advertisements for the event does not say what exactly Bray will be doing at
the show
Up until this point, It’s not being advertised as a match, so chances are that it may just
be a little promo that’s similar to the ones he’s been giving in recent weeks
It can’t be anything to crazy to advance his story forward because obviously, this
live event isn’t being televised, so you can’t make huge advancements in the story
But maybe he’ll have another small run in with LA Knight, that definitely seems more
likely than a match or a big story advancing promo
Not to mention the fact that they wouldn’t waste his in-ring return during a live event,
that seems highly unlikely as well
So it probably won’t be major, but Bray Wyatt is officially coming back to live events
As far as Bray Wyatt goes, his story and character continues to be one of the brightest spots
coming out of Smackdown
You do have your small group of fans out there that are very impatient and just wants Bray
Wyatt to get back in the ring already
But if you’ve followed Bray Wyatt before, you should know that the storytelling is always
gonna come first for him
He’s gonna spend a lot of time building the story, giving you reasons to be interested
in his character, and then he’ll hit you with the payoff later on down the road
It’s like some fans that went back and saw the rollout of The Fiend
Bray’s first Firefly Funhouse episode came in early spring, but The Fiend himself didn’t
physically appear until several months later in early summer of that year
So taking that structure into consideration, Bray first started teasing this new character
in mid October and we’re now two months into it
A lot has been accomplished within the first few months, we’ve learned more about how
this current version of Bray operates and thinks…
We’ve learned quite a lot about the Uncle Howdy character, and even Alexa Bliss is slowly
being brought back into the fold
So the story is still greatly progressing even without matches or the actual appearance
of Bray Wyatt’s new monster
But being two months into the story, we can definitely expect that next big leap in the
story to take place here at least in the coming month
