It was previously reported that Former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Sasha Banks tried to quit WWE after feeling blindsided about the company’s decision to have them drop The WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles to The IIconics at WrestleMania 35. Shortly after, another report surfaced wherein Banks & Bayley made it clear that they were upset about the company’s decision to have them drop The WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles to The IIconics by voicing their displeasure in the locker room and lying down on the hotel room floor.
After that, Sasha Banks posted a photo of her & Bayley with WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The IIconics on her Instagram with simply just the caption, “#womenswrestling.” It was then noted that if the reports were true that means that Banks & Bayley’s displeasures comes from having a shorter title run than expected and not specific to The WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The IIconics.
In an interview last month with Sky Sports, Sasha Banks spoke highly of The IIconics when asked if an injury had prevented Bayley & herself from winning The WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles at Elimination Chamber, who would she have chosen to win. Banks said, “For me I would’ve said The IIconics, although they’re still quite brand new,” Banks said. “They’re amazing though, they’re really incredible. And they’ve had the dream to be WWE tag-team champions since they were kids too. They seem like a real team too and if it wasn’t us then I’d like to have seen them have it. Hopefully we can have some good matches with them.”
