Sasha Banks, now known as Mercedes Mone, and Naomi left WWE together due to disagreements with Vince McMahon’s booking decisions. Mone made a memorable appearance at NJPW’s Wrestle Kingdom 17 event, attacking KAIRI during the show. It appears that WWE is signaling Mone’s departure from the company.
Sasha Banks has been placed in WWE’s alumni section, a list of wrestlers who formerly worked for the company but are no longer affiliated with it. This indicates that Banks is no longer with WWE.
Contrary to Sasha Banks, Naomi has not been placed in WWE’s alumni section and is still listed as an active wrestler. This is noteworthy as it suggests that Naomi remains affiliated with WWE.
Some within WWE speculate that Sasha Banks may eventually return to the company. This is reportedly one of the reasons why she did not want to commit to a three-year contract with AEW. It remains to be seen whether Banks will be able to negotiate a different deal with Tony Khan.
