Sasha Banks Will Not Require Back Surgery

The WWE Universe got a double dose of bad news after SummerSlam when two of the company’s top young performers sustaining injuries. WWE has confirmed Finn Balor will be out 4-6 months after undergoing shoulder surgery this week. The attention then shifted to Sasha Banks, who dropping the Women’s championship to Charlotte at SummerSlam. Word quickly got out that she was dealing with a lower back injury, but she thankfully will not require surgery.

WWE reports that Sasha Banks injured her back at SummerSlam, but she has actually been working with back pain for the past several weeks. According to sources, her opponents have been told to be careful with her in the ring. The decision was made last week for her to drop the title and take time off.

Shortly after her loss to Charlotte, fans on social media were quick to point out that WWE is no longer advertising Sasha Banks for upcoming live events. The next WWE live event that Sasha Banks is advertised to appear at is September 23rd from Moline, IL. Obviously, surgery would have kept her out of action much longer than a month.

Monday’s RAW saw the full-time main roster debut of Bayley, a close friend of Sasha Banks. Bayley squared off against Dana Brooke will now begin working a program with Women’s Champion Charlotte.

Sasha Banks is expected to return to the title picture when she returns to action in late September.
