Latest on Sasha Banks & Naomi (Patreon)
Content
Naomi and Sasha Banks are currently suspended, and as of now there's no end in sight.
We're told by those in WWE that they've not heard of much, if any, communication between the two sides. However, Fightful was able to confirm that WWE had canceled upcoming travel plans they had for both women starting last week when the suspension happened.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer reported that the suspension was without pay. We've not been able to verify that, but one higher up told Fightful they don't believe Naomi and Sasha Banks' contracts would be frozen if they're not being paid. We'll attempt to get a confirmation on that.
Another source indicated to Fightful that initially, several in WWE didn't want to vacate the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles, but it became clear pretty quickly that was the route that needed to be taken. We've heard no update on when a potential tournament could take place.
