Sasha Banks and Bayley have been feuding for months now, but The Boss came out on top when she challenged Bayley for the SmackDown Women’s Championship at Hell in a Cell a few weeks ago, and in the end it was Banks who walked out with the belt.
The Boss recently spoke to Variety about her title win, and she was asked if this run feels any different. Banks noted that she’s looking forward to facing new competitors, and that she thinks she is “the greatest wrestler of all time.”
“It feels so much different this time around. I feel like ever since I came back from my little break where I really just tried to find my passion again, my wrestling has just been *mwah* chef’s kiss. I mean, I’ve always been great, amazing. But the seasonings that I’ve been adding in 2020 have just been tasting so freakin’ good that I just cannot stop and I cannot wait to do more. Being the SmackDown Women’s Champion, that means I am completely the best. I always say ‘I’m the best.’ I really know 100% that I am the greatest wrestler of all time, but I have so many new competitors. I look forward to facing so many new faces, so many new matchups, and it really lets me go to sleep dreaming of excitement for every Friday night knowing what I’m going to have.”
On Sunday night Sasha Banks will face Raw Women’s Champion Asuka in a champion vs. champion non-title match at Survivor Series, and she gave Asuka props for being great, but noted that she thinks she’s greater.
“Asuka is, if not one of the best, the best competitor in our division. And she is a legend in Japan. She is one of the longest-reigning champions in our company. We have thrown it down in the past, but I feel like every single day, we want to get better in every single way. We want to do the best. And now that we represent our own brands, and being the champions, we’re really just going to go there Sunday and prove who is the best of the best. SmackDown is Team Blue. That’s why my hair is blue. That’s why I’m the Blueprint. That’s why I’m really the greatest. I have to show her that I’m the best at everything. She is great. But I’m greater.”
