Wrestling legend wants interesting talent trade of Sasha Banks and top female star between WWE and AEW
Mark Henry has pitched a unique trade between WWE and AEW involving Sasha Banks and Jade Cargill.
Sasha Banks shocked the world by walking out of RAW alongside Naomi in May 2022. The two were dubbed ''unprofessional'' and suspended indefinitely by WWE for their actions. Since her alleged exit, The Boss' has left fans wondering about her return to the global juggernaut.
Meanwhile, Banks has been making various non-WWE appearances. She was recently spotted with AEW star Danhausen at C2E2, a convention held in Chicago.
Speaking on the Busted Open podcast, Mark Henry suggested a cross-promotional talent trade involving Banks and the current TBS Champion:
"There's always one professional athlete on a team that doesn't wanna be there anymore and they request a trade. That's the situation I present. Sasha Banks tells the WWE 'I request a trade, I wanna go somewhere else' and the WWE reaches out to AEW President Tony Khan and says 'We'll trade you Sasha Banks for the right to Jade Cargill,'' said Henry.

The WWE Hall of Famer further detailed the potential benefits of this talent swap for both the companies:
"This way, y'all gotta a future prospect that can be a champion that's undefeated, that has beaten everybody in the company," he added. (7.03-7.17)
