The latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio provided a Sasha Banks injury update. After being pulled from the Mixed Match Challenge and this past weekend’s live events, fans were left to speculate on the current status of The Boss. Banks was also notably absent from Raw this week.
Although details remain murky, Dave Meltzer provided more insight. “I don’t have a specific injury. She’s off for medical reasons,” Meltzer said on the Tuesday morning edition of Observer Radio (subscription required).
Meltzer went on to speculate on what the lack of specific details given from those within WWE on the injury might mean.
“Whatever reason, I don’t know why they wouldn’t say. Usually when they don’t say, there’s a story as to why,” he said. “So, you end up getting more suspicious.”
For Banks, this medical issue comes at an inopportune time. With the all-women’s Evolution show scheduled for October 28, Banks would likely be featured on that card, if healthy.
This is notable considering that she has wrestled just once on a pay-per-view event since Wrestlemania 34. Banks is a 4-time Raw Women’s Champion, a record she shares with Charlotte Flair.
Do you think Sasha Banks will be back in time for Evolution?
