Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of WWE earlier this year after clashing with Vince McMahon, but with the Chairman gone, it sounds like attempts are being made to woo them back. Find more details here…
Earlier this year, Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of WWE, ditching their Women’s Tag Team Championships in the process. At the time, they were expected to put their title reign on hold for individual feuds with RAW Women’s Champion Bianca Belair and SmackDown Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey.
However, they’d have come out on the losing end of both matches at Hell in the Cell, and it sounds like neither were happy about being made to look like ineffective champions after spending months building the titles up.
Since then, we’ve heard countless conflicting reports about their respective WWE futures. For example, it’s been claimed that Banks has actually been granted her release, but regardless of what’s happened up until this point, it’s now said that the company is looking to bring both women back.
That comes in the wake of Vince McMahon’s recent retirement; remember, he was in charge of Creative at the time they walked out and almost certainly responsible for the subsequent burial on TV.
According to Dave Meltzer (via WrestlingNews.co), “It’s kind of up in the air. They’re gone. The last I heard was that there would be attempts made to reconcile, especially with Vince gone. So, it’s up in the air. I don’t think there’s anything definite just yet.”
Both women have been gone from WWE since May, but it makes all the sense in the world for Triple H and Stephanie McMahon to try and tempt them back. Their departure came as a huge blow to the company, and stopping them from heading to AEW, for example, would be a real win for WWE at a time when one is sorely needed.
