Sasha Banks On How Her Feud With Bayley Changed Her Career And More

Sasha Banks made her return to WWE this week on Raw and the fans were thrilled to see her. Banks recently spoke to the Orlando Sentinel to promote this Sunday’s WWE live event at the Amway Center and during the interview Sasha talked about how her feud with Bayley changed everything for her.

“Before I came to WWE, I was watching guys like John Cena and The Rock and said, ‘I want to be able to bring people to their feet cheering like that. The women’s match has been the bathroom break on shows for too long. Since the match I had with Bayley, people have been buying tickets to see us. That’s amazing.”

Fans know Sasha Banks as “The Boss” and during the interview she was also asked where she came up with the nick name.

“When I was first starting out, I was looking at people like [Snoop], Kanye [West] and Nicki Minaj, then somehow the idea ‘I’m the boss’ clicked with me. So now I’m ‘The Boss.'”
