Sasha Banks has been released from her WWE contract.
WWE announces when someone releases from the company, but they have not publicly announced Sasha’s status this time. Sasha Bank is still listed on the WWE internal roster page as inactive/suspended. Typically, WWE attaches a 90-day non-compete clause when they release a main roster superstar from the company. If Banks has been released, she will become a free agent in September.
As of this writing, there’s no report about Naomi’s WWE contract status. She is still listed as inactive/suspended on the WWE internal roster page.
We will update you when we receive more details. Stay tuned with The Spotlight.
