#4 Her emotions before her match at 'Mania

At one point in her career, Sasha Banks was the cornerstone of the Women's division alongside Charlotte Flair. Fast forward to WrestleMania 35 and Banks was in a Tag Team title match, while Flair and Becky Lynch were headlining 'Mania. Sasha talked about her emotions before her match at the event.

I had zero feelings going out there. And that's everybody's dream, to be on WrestleMania. What the h**l? I have no feeling? I wasn't trying to pump myself up like I normally do. I walked out there and looked up to the crowd and thought, this is it, I'm done.

#3 Banks felt that wrestling was destroying her life

It's no secret by this point that WrestleMania season was possibly the absolute lowest point of Banks' Pro Wrestling career. At one point in the chronicle, Banks stated that this business was the only thing she had since she was a little girl, and although it saved her life, she felt that it was destroying it at that point.

I've missed it so much, because all I've had since I was a little girl was wrestling. And, wrestling saved my life, and I felt like it was destroying it, so I wanted to take a step back and figure out what that problem was.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
