Sasha Banks wants to keep making history in WWE
Sasha is one of the most inspirational superstars in WWE. She has made history more than once and continues to achieve success in the company. Main-eventing WrestleMania isn't the only thing that The Legit Boss wants to be known for.
During an interview with Steve Fall of NBC Sports Boston, she stated that her goal for 2022 is to headline a premium live event in Saudi Arabia.
“The rest of the year, I just want to continue to keep on shaking the table,” Sasha Banks said. “I want to keep on making history. I think for myself, I would love to main event a pay-per-view in Saudi. I would love for the Tag Team Women’s Championships to be represented over there and in the main event. The main event of any pay-per-view representing these is just the goal of 2022, and I think me and Naomi can accomplish that for sure.”
