What's the story?
The Royal Rumble is almost here and Sasha Banks, it seems, means business!
The former Raw Women's Champion has been diligently hitting the gym lately and took to Instagram to show off all the impressive progress she has been making. Check out the Boss looking absolutely shredded in this one:
In case you didn't know...
The Boss has been in the news for all the wrong reasons of late as her name has sprung up in the list of superstars who are reportedly unhappy with the WWE.
With AEW aggressively pursuing WWE talents with big-money contracts, notable WWE superstars such as the Revival seem to be pushing for a way out of Vince McMahon's company. Dash Wilder and Scott Wilder reportedly had their requests for a WWE release turned down. Banks, though, took the fans by surprise when she seemingly teased quitting the WWE along with the former NXT Tag Team Champions with a series of tweets:
There's no need to panic as it's all fun and banter from the Boss, who is unsurprisingly training hard for her Royal Rumble title match.
The heart of the matter
It has been five gruelling weeks since Banks made up her mind about getting a set of chiselled abs and all the hard work has indeed paid off. There's still a long way to and a lot more work to be done in the gym, but Banks looks to be on the right path.
Rowdy better be watch out, The Boss isn't playing around!
What's next?
Ronda Rousey will defend the WWE Raw Women's Championship against Sasha Banks at the upcoming Royal Rumble PPV on January 27th, 2019 at Chase Field, Pheonix, Arizona.
Rousey is predictably the odds-on favourite heading into the babyface vs. babyface encounter but you can never trust the WWE Creative on such a massive occasion.
