Sasha Banks was a huge wrestling fan growing up. Although she admired WWE Hall of Famer Eddie Guerrero, The Boss also had a crush on current SmackDown star Sheamus.

In an interview with TRL in 2018, the 30-year-old spoke about her attraction to The Celtic Warrior growing up. She also disclosed that she still loves the 44-year-old.

"I don't want to admit this! Sheamus from WWE – when I was a child! When I was little! I know! I thought he was cute... I still love him, I still love him," she said. [H/T: The Sportster]

Although they have never shared the ring in the Stamford-based company, Banks and Sheamus seem to be good friends outside of it. The two wrestlers, who later became co-workers, took several photos together over the past few years, in which they appeared to be enjoying themselves.

Sheamus is currently active on the Blue Brand. Meanwhile, Banks has been absent from in-ring action since May, after she and her tag team partner Naomi walked out during an episode of Monday Night RAW.

While rumors have suggested that she has been released from her contract, neither the company nor The Boss has confirmed these speculations.
