Booker T Reacts To Sasha Banks And Naomi Walking Out Of WWE

Over the last week everyone has been talking about Sasha Banks and Naomi walking out of WWE. On Friday Night SmackDown the company confirmed that the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles have been vacated and that Sasha Banks and Naomi have been suspended indefinitely.

Booker T addressed the walkout during a recent episode of his Hall of Fame podcast and he noted that he thinks the whole situation could have been handled differently.

“I just think the situation should have been handled differently. If they wanted to go out and get the job done, and then walk out and say, ‘Hey look, whatever you’ve got planned for us going forward we’ve got to talk about it,’ or, ‘We’re not in for it,’ I get that. But to up and leave the show, for anybody to support that … it’s setting a precedent as far as guys wanting to walk out and leave the show.”

The former WCW World Heavyweight Champion went on to say that just because a wrestler parts ways with WWE that doesn’t necessarily mean that they’ll be guaranteed a job elsewhere.

“To be thinking about these guys from a perspective now where they can just jump up and just do anything because AEW is over there, and they can run over there and get a job, well AEW ain’t hiring everybody, okay. I’m not saying that they won’t hire Naomi and Sasha, but I’m just saying they’re not hiring everybody. There’s a lot of people out there right now in this wrestling world that don’t have jobs, and AEW easily could have signed them.”
