Sasha Banks suffered a legit leg injury while performing at a live event. In a match against her arch-nemesis Charlotte Flair, she landed awkwardly after an over-the-knee backbreaker.
Though she tried to finish the match, her condition didn't allow her to, and the match was cut short. The referee quickly checked her status and soon threw the "X" sign.
Apparently the x was thrown hoping she’s ok #WWEFayetteville https://t.co/GhpLs3d41i
For those unaware, the sign is used by the officials when there is a legitimate injury to the superstar. Banks has since been written off the show and is expected to return within two months.
The following is the official statement released by the promotion:
“Sasha Banks suffered a foot injury at a WWE Live Event in Fayetteville, NC, Sunday night. Although nothing is broken, an MRI has revealed a bruised calcaneus bone, and she will be out of action for 6-8 weeks.”
If everything goes right, we can expect the former women's champion to come back before WrestleMania. However, she will miss the Royal Rumble yet again.
The Legit Boss is the first-ever superstar to enter the women's Royal Rumble match, entering the inaugural 2018 edition at #1. She is yet to return to the eponymous battle royale since that appearance.
