Brock Lesnar's former rival calls for Sasha Banks to return to WWE

Brock Lesnar's former rival has called on Sasha Banks to make her return to WWE.

The Boss and Naomi were the reigning Women's Tag Team Champions when they decided that they had enough and walked out of the company in May 2022. Naomi is now known as Trinity in IMPACT Wrestling and is the reigning Knockouts World Champion.

Banks made her way to NJPW and defeated KAIRI, now known as Kairi Sane in WWE, at Battle in the Valley in February to capture the IWGP Women's Championship. She is currently out with an injury and was recently shown in the crowd during AEW All In 2023 at Wembley Stadium.

UFC legend Daniel Cormier was a guest on The MMA Hour today with Ariel Helwani. During the interview, Cormier suggested that Sasha Banks return to the company at the Royal Rumble:

"So my thought is, the Royal Rumble, maybe Sasha Banks comes back. Dude, remember they were tag team champs?", Cormier said. [From 00:02 - 00:11]

Ariel Helwani was dismissive of Banks entirely as a performer and wondered what she had ever done. Cormier pointed out that he was just acting that way because he was excited about CM Punk's return to the company:

"She's won every championship, she's done everything. And right now, her name is like something Moné, she's like rocking and rolling in Japan. Like, she's the best," added Cormier. [From 00:25 - 00:34]
