The third annual women’s Royal Rumble match was part of the Royal Rumble pay-per-view on Sunday, but fans couldn’t help but notice that Sasha Banks was not part of the contest.
It was later reported that while Sasha was originally listed internally for the match, her spot eventually went to former WWE Superstar Kelly Kelly.
PWInsider is now reporting that Sasha Banks was not part of the match because she wasn’t cleared to compete due to an unknown injury.
Recently it’s been rumored that Sasha Banks has been dealing with an injury after WWE nixed her TV matches with Lacey Evans on SmackDown.
There’s currently no official word on what type of injury she’s dealing with, but it’s rumored that The Boss could be dealing with an ankle injury.
