Sasha Banks is having a great year despite the pandemic. The Boss won the RAW Women’s title and Tag Team title; then, she defeated her former best friend, Bayley, to win the SmackDown Women’s title. By doing so, she became the fourth triple crown champion within one year.

However, this is just the beginning of Banks. As one of the front runners of WWE’s Women’s Revolution, she could not be happier. In a recent Digital Spy interview, she said, “For any new fan watching, especially women, I think it’s so cool to see women do it better than the guys.”

“For my match to be so well-received and for fans to say that I had the match of the night… it’s just incredible to be a part of this Women’s Evolution where just non-stop fans talk about the women and how incredible that we do,” as she referred to her Hell in a Cell match with Bayley.

However, she wants to main-event WrestleMania again. Banks said it does not matter who she faces, “I just want to have the most fun time that I can have in WWE. Whether that’s Bayley at WrestleMania, whether that’s Liv Morgan, whether that’s Ruby Riott – it could be anybody.”

Yet, she singled out Bayley as the ultimate opponent for a “dream-come-true moment,” “But, of course, to main event WrestleMania is still one of my biggest dreams and to do that with Bayley would be ultimately a dream come true.”

In 2018, WWE presented the first-ever all-women pay-per-view in history. The event was a huge success. However, it got postponed for two years. Like fans, Sasha, too, wants the revival of it.

“[Evolution] is something I absolutely want to happen again,” Sasha said. “It’s just something that I think was so incredible for the women and for the fans that I don’t understand why there hasn’t been a second one yet.”
