Rumours suggesting Sasha Banks to join AEW this month
On the contrary, Meltzer states that AEW believes that Banks may join them by the end of January, after finishing up her acting commitments. She has worked on a few big projects including The Mandalorian TV series and The Collective, released last year.
A few weeks ago, Dave Meltzer stated on WON Radio that her transfer was imminent. However, he refused to confirm anything until a contract was signed. He said, “The expectation is that it’s imminent. Until it happens and I hear that the contract is actually signed, I don’t take anything seriously because it’s been a year of rumours and thoughts and nothing happened.” Well, with so much drama unfolding around her return, Meltzer gave his final verdict as nothing is certain.
