Sasha Banks Teases “Something F*cking Crazy Is Coming, I Can’t Wait”
As noted before, Sasha Banks and Naomi have been absent from WWE since this past May due to their current suspensions over a walk out incident during a WWE RAW show in Norfolk, Virginia.
Banks recently teased on Instagram that she will be making a major announcement soon that has been six months in the making. Banks did not specify if this was wrestling-related or something else entirely.
“As time passes, there has been so much growth, there’s been so much beautiful opportunity, and a journey that I’ve been loving, but as time passes, the date is coming that I have been waiting for, for the past 6 months, and I can’t wait. I am really gonna make the most of this November to make all my dreams happen in preparation for this date that I’ve been waiting for. I’m very excited, and I hope you guys come along for this journey. I just want to let you know there’s going to be something so fucking crazy coming.”
Sasha Banks says a date is coming that she's been waiting for the last 6 months.
