WWE’s current projection of the WrestleMania 40 event has been going very strong with its official #RoadToWrestleMania attracting pro wrestling fans. But, the recent Dwayne Johnson fiasco has left a very bad taste in long-term fan’s mouths. However, even if this wouldn’t have happened, Tony Khan was going to use Banks as his Ace of Spades to derail the WrestleMania fanfare.

With that said, The Boss will most likely make landfall on AEW Revolution 2024. The event will already draw a lot of eyes to see the final match of legendary pro wrestler Sting. While the veteran will invite spectators to the show, Sasha Banks will ensure that they stay, and keep returning. 

Well, it isn’t hard to imagine that Sasha Banks would go for the biggest fish in the sea and lock horns with her. Right now, that throne belongs to Women’s Champ Toni Storm, and The Boss would very much love to annex it for herself.

We now know her most likely target and her most likely timing of appearance. But, it would be hard to guess how this will exactly unfold. Sasha Banks likes to keep fans guessing and keep her motives a secret. In fact, she is even ready to troll fans to maintain the intrigue.

Sasha Banks had unleashed a massive tornado of social media activity by a simple action right before the Royal Rumble 2024. Pro wrestling fans wished The Boss a happy birthday on 26 January and celebrated her birthday. One of the fans, however, went ahead and said that they’ll see her on Saturday, or the day of the Rumble.

To the surprise of the entire WWE Universe, Banks liked this comment, sending everyone into a frenzy. Everyone thought that Banks spoiled her much anticipated turn by this accidental gesture. But, it was actually the fans who got played when the 30th contestant entered the ring and it wasn’t The Boss.
