But ‘The Boss‘ has not been involved in any title picture for a long time. Despite that, Sasha still proved herself to be a major draw.

During last week’s episode of WWE SmackDown, the former WWE SmackDown Champion recently teamed up with Naomi to take on Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan in a tag team match.

Recently, Wrestle Ops reported that the match drew close to 2,300,000 viewers. Despite the presence of top stars like Charlotte Flair, Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, and Ronda Rousey, that became the highest viewed segment of the entire show.

This is amazing not only for Sasha Banks but for all other women involved in this segment.

Towards the end of the match, Shayna Baszler and Natalya also made their presence felt. The duo interfered in the match, causing the match to end as a no contest.
