Wrestling is an unforgiving sport. The 100+ superstars of the rosters put their body and mind to pain every week just for the fans watching at home. Hence, WWE pays its talents very well. Top stars like Drew McIntyre, Roman Reigns, Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair have quite a fortune.

The current WWE SmackDown Champion Sasha Banks is one of the assets of WWE. Her presence matters a lot in the blue brand. Recently her appearance in The Mandalorian propelled WWE and its women’s division into the global market.

As a reward, ‘The Boss’ gets a base salary of 250,00$ per year. Apart from this, she also gains significant revenue from WWE approved brand endorsements, appearances, and merchandise sales.

Also, WWE offers an undisclosed amount of bonuses to its top talents based on their performance. All this cash made Banks worth quite a fortune. As of 2021, Sasha’s net worth is estimated at $5 Million.

Sasha Banks is currently feuding with Carmella

Although she enjoyed quite a title reign, 2020 was not so great for Banks. Despite being the WWE Raw Women’s Champion and one-half of the Tag Team Champion, Sasha Banks lost it all.

First, she lost the title to Asuka, then her best-friend/tag team partner, Bayley, turned on her following their loss. Banks was left alone when Bayley injured her neck and left.
