Sasha Banks has called out WWE for giving Roman Reigns more screen time than her.

According to ‘The Boss’, she is the top Superstar performing on WWE SmackDown. As a result, the company should take steps that will give her what she deserves.

Not only does she compare herself to Roman Reigns but also to Drew McIntyre.

“I’m not afraid to let people know that I’m better than Roman Reigns. I really am. I’m the face of SmackDown. I’m better than Drew McIntyre. I am. There are facts; you can look at the science and the numbers. I am the face of the company. I am the best and that’s just who I am.”

Sasha Banks believes that right now, Roman Reigns is her competition on WWE SmackDown. This means that she already believes herself to be on the top of the Women’s Division.

“I don’t watch NXT. I don’t watch Raw. But the only person I do see that gets more time than me is Roman. I’m not hating on it, but I’m just letting the company know that I need my time as well. That’s who I’m seeing. To me, that’s my competition.”

Why is Roman Reigns getting more time than Sasha Banks?

Both Roman Reigns and Sasha Banks are popular WWE Superstars. Considering they are the current WWE SmackDown champions of their respective divisions, it’s understandable why Banks is demanding the same time as Roman Reigns.

However, ever since his return, Reigns has been put in storylines that are exciting and popular with the WWE Universe. The first one was with his cousin, Jey Uso, and now with Drew McIntyre, the WWE champion.

Considering the storyline with McIntyre makes it a champion vs. champion one, it’s justified that Reigns is getting more time.

On the other hand, Sasha Banks was initially in a storyline with Bayley. This was popular among the crowd and she got her deserved time.

Now, SmackDown has put her in a possible storyline with Carmella. Needless to say, it doesn’t match the star power of a Reigns-McIntyre or Sasha-Bayley showdown.
