Free Hugs Currently injured New Day member Xavier Woods
appeared at Dragon Con over the weekend cosplaying in honour of his fellow WWE wrestler - the
also injured Bayley.
But shockingly, Cosplay Sasha Banks turned heel on Cosplay Bayley as Woods was filming
that Instagram post.
Hopefully that’s the long term storyline WWE has in mind for the actual Banks and Bayley.
There’s no point asking Sasha, though, because nobody tells her nothing.
Sasha Banks Unhappy With WWE Appearing on the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast
- which was recorded shortly before Summerslam - Banks had the following to say about how
Raw is organised backstage: “When I go to Raw, it's legit like I have
no clue what I am doing so I don't even know what to prepare for...Honestly, I wish we
had the opportunity to know what we are doing in the next three months."
And that’s not the only thing Banks is unhappy with backstage.
“I’m a three time Raw Women’s Champion, right...which to me is a lie.
I’m a three-time two week holder of a championship.
That took away my confidence so much.”
Depressingly, Banks said this the weekend she became Raw Women’s Champion for the
fourth time, beating Alexa Bliss at Summerslam...which she then lost 8 days later.
Her first two reigns lasted 27 days each, and her third went 20.
They’re getting less.
But could this most recent title loss be the last straw?
Sasha Banks Changes Twitter Profile Banks has changed her Twitter bio from “Legit
Boss Da Baddest Supastar in all of WWE!
I am not afraid I was born to do this Bank On It” to just a contact link for her agency.
While this could have a perfectly innocent reason - or just be some good old fashioned
trolling - the last time someone removed all reference to being a WWE superstar from their
Twitter bio was Eva Marie earlier this year.
And she left the company several months afterwards Banks has since updated her bio to include
the bible passage Jeremiah 29:11, which reads “I just kicked your ass!”
Sorry...wait...that’s Austin 3:16.
Jeremiah 29:11 forebodingly reads: “For I know the plans I have for you,”
declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope
and a future.”
JBL Leaving WWE Smackdown Someone who most definitely is leaving WWE,
though, is John Bradshaw Layfield.
“After much consideration, I will be stepping back my weekly role as Smackdown Announcer
to dedicate more continuous time on the work I have done since 2010 with at risk kids and
communities.”
JBL continues that his new schedule will allow him to remain “a part of the WWE family”,
but he’ll now mainly be concentrating on his charity work.
Pro Wrestling Sheet report that Bradshaw’s departure has been in the works since May,
when JBL told WWE he wouldn’t be re-signing when his deal expired.
While this could be completely unrelated, that timeframe fits with his bullying accusation
scandal earlier this year - where Mauro Ranallo left his Smackdown announcer position in March
because of reported clashes between the two.
With Mauro now the lead commentator for NXT, he happily tweeted seemingly in reference
to JBL’s departure: “FYI #WeAreNXT 😎🔥#ThatIsAll”
