Sasha Banks reportedly not heading to WWE’s rival promotion AEW
For weeks, there were speculations regarding The Boss probably joining AEW to team up with Saraya for a tag team match. Even some wrestling veterans and people within AEW thought of former WWE stars joining to become All Elite. However, all speculation seems false as a new report states that the former SmackDown Women’s Champion is not close to joining WWE’s rival promotion.
“I also know from WWE that they are very strongly under the impression that she (Mercedes Monè) will not wrestle for AEW.
They think that shes coming back at some point, she’ll get this out of her system, she’ll do her NJPW matches, — & then come back.”
