A Sasha Banks WWE Return Might Actually Be On The Table
Hey, CM Punk is back. Anything can happen.Is A WWE Return Still Possible?
Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of WWE due to creative disputes with Vince McMahon, leading to their suspension and the vacating of their tag team titles. She made her return to pro wrestling as Mercedes Mone in NJPW, where she won the IWGP Women's Championship but later lost it to Mayu Iwatani. With Triple H now in charge of creative and not at all afraid to bring back stars that were once at odds with the company, the timing feels right for Banks to make her return.
It's not clear if the two sides have even talked. But, seeing as how quickly the Punk deal with WWE came together, it might take long to sort things out if there's a willingness on both sides.
