Sasha Banks recently spoke with The Orlando Sentinel to talk about her WWE career and more. Here are the highlights.
On the women’s division: “Before I came to WWE, I was watching guys like John Cena and The Rock and said, ‘I want to be able to bring people to their feet cheering like that.’ The women’s match has been the bathroom break on shows for too long. Since the match I had with Bayley, people have been buying tickets to see us. That’s amazing.”
On coming up with the nickname The Boss: “When I was first starting out, I was looking at people like [Snoop], Kanye [West] and Nicki Minaj, then somehow the idea ‘I’m the boss’ clicked with me. So now I’m ‘The Boss.’”
On her future: “It’s insane to think about where I’ve come from in just a little over three years. Imagine what the next three years could bring! It gets me really emotional to feel like I’m a part of history.”
Banks also talked about NXT and more. You can read the entire interview here.
