What’s going guys and welcome back to wrestling world!
Today we’ll be taking a look at all of the Sasha Banks drama that took off after Wrestlemania
35 and how wwe almost lost Sasha for good
Now that the rumors and everything have settled down and her hiatus has been over for a long
time , we finally know what was true and what wasn’t true so let’s get into it
So this whole messy situation started right after Wrestlemania 35
Sasha Banks and Bayley had just became the first ever wwe women’s tag team champions
a few weeks before Wrestlemania
Now behind the scenes, Sasha banks and Bayley were the only ones that were really hammering
the idea to Vince McMahon about women’s tag titles
Sure, all of the women played a role in the creation of the titles, but Sasha and Bayley
were the most consistent ones and were talking to Vince McMahon about the titles every single
day
Vince McMahon and wwe finally gave in and created the women’s titles for a 2019 release
date
And to award Sasha and Bayley for everything they did for the creation of the titles, wwe
decided to make them the first ever tag champs
They were obviously emotional and had major plans to make these titles even bigger than
they already were, but this is where the problem kicked in
Only a few weeks after winning the titles and barely even defending it, Sasha and Bayley
were set to lose the titles at Wrestlemania
This was something that Sasha and Bayley heavily disagreed with
The women’s tag titles were brand new and they didn’t want the titles to already have
that “hot potato” effect of changing hands so fast between multiple tag teams
Sasha and Bayley wanted to create a historic reign so that it will actually mean something
when they eventually lost the titles down the line
But those plans were denied and they ended up losing the titles to the iconics, Peyton
Royce and Billie Kay, at Wrestlemania 35
Now like we mentioned before, wwe did have big plans for the iconics’ reign and that’s
why they won the titles at mania
The Bellas Twins were set to return the week after Wrestlemania 35 and head right a feud
with the iconics for the women’s tag titles
However these plans were destroyed after Nikki Bella had re-injured her neck and had a cyst
on her brain
The Bellas return was cancelled and the IIconics title reign also ended up being a little messy
as well
As the women’s tag champions, the the iconics were kept off of television for several weeks
and it just really hurt the titles even more
But going back to Sasha banks, what happened that Wrestlemania weekend?
Now the popular bogus rumor was that Sasha Banks and Bayley protested dropping the titles
by lying down on the floor in the locker room
As well as the rumor of Sasha Banks walking out of wwe with no intention to return to
the company
So let’s go over what’s true and not true there
Bayley and Sasha have addressed the “throwing a tantrum” rumor and said that it never
happened and was a false rumor
But Sasha banks, the wwe character, addressed the rumor on raw when she returned and said
that it did happen
This was reportedly a line made by Paul heyman that took a bogus popular dirt sheet rumor
and implemented it into a character’s story And in Sasha’s case, get her more heat since
she was just beginning her heel turn at the time
He believed that Sasha owning up to the tantrum rumors would really get the fans to turn on
her even more so that’s why it was included in the promo
That rumor was always hard to believe, the thought of them lying on the floor and pleading
to keep the tag titles does seem a bit ridiculous
Maybe Sasha and Bayley did plead to keep the titles in a professional way but the whole
tantrum story never happened
the part of everything that was true was the fact that Sasha Banks walked out of wwe with
likely no intention to return
Sasha was frustrated with her position and all of the false promises from wwe especially
after they lost the tag titles
Losing the tag titles so fast was what made sasha finally snap and lose hope in the wwe
Sasha did take 5 long months away from wwe with little to no updates about her status
with the company
She had turned her hair color back to its natural color, she started going by her real
first name, and even started following AEW
This made wwe fans really wonder what was going on between Sasha and wwe
After being gone forever, Sasha finally agreed to meet with Vince McMahon and they ended
up working it out
Wwe network even did a documentary of the few days leading up to Sasha’s wwe return
and she was very emotional about being away from her passion for so long
Sasha did return right into the main event scene but was unable to capture the women’s
championship and now tags along with Bayley
Of course there’s a lot of story to easily tell there
Sasha can turn on Bayley at any time and they can come up with some story line of her being
tired of being Bayley’s sidekick and finally challenge Bayley for the title
But championship or not, Sasha Banks is being heavily featured on Wwe television again so
maybe that’s all she really wanted
And the title win for Sasha banks will still be coming up in the near future as well
It was a really close call and wwe almost lost one of their biggest female superstars
for good, but Vince McMahon was able to make the save
