A reports swirl about the status of Sasha Banks and Naomi, it seems that WWE have appeared to get in on the act.
On May 16th Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of the ongoing Monday Night Raw taping and haven’t been seen on WWE television since. In the days after the incident it was reported that a row over creative had prompted their departure.
On the following episode of SmackDown it was announced that the pair had been stripped of their Women’s Tag Team Titles and suspended indefinitely. However, as change sweeps through WWE in the post-Vince McMahon era, it appears that the two women might be about to return.
In the run up to the August 1st episode of Raw, it has been reported that an agreement has been reached between WWE and their two absent stars. The agreement could see the former champions return imminently.
As the rumour-mill goes into overdrive, it appears as though WWE have also decided to add a little fuel to the fire. In a tweet promoting the show, WWE wrote:
“With #SummerSlam in the rearview, who will make the biggest statement tonight on #WWERaw?

The line seemingly an obvious reference to Naomi’s ‘rear-view’ signature move and Sasha Banks ‘Bank Statement. Meanwhile on WWEShop.com a 20% discount promotion is currently underway. Nothing unusual there maybe. But cheekily the code to get the discount is “walkout.” Apparently a reference to Banks and Naomi’s departure.
