WWE reportedly have no plans for the return of Sasha Banks and Naomi, according to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio, who stated:
“There are at this point zero plans for them to return, there is zero talk whatsoever about the two of them as it pertains to creative.”
The pair made headlines last week after walking out of WWE Raw, despite being booked for a main event five-way match. WWE surprisingly made a full statement regarding the situation, which read:
"When Sasha Banks and Naomi arrived at the arena this afternoon, they were informed of their participation in the main event of tonight’s Monday Night Raw. During the broadcast, they walked into WWE Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis’ office with their suitcases in hand, placed their tag team championship belts on his desk and walked out. They claimed they weren’t respected enough as tag team champions. And even though they had eight hours to rehearse and construct their match, they claimed they were uncomfortable in the ring with two of their opponents – even though they’d had matches with those individuals in the past with no consequence. Monday Night Raw is a scripted live TV show, whose characters are expected to perform the requirements of their contract."
This was added to on last week's SmackDown, where Michael Cole revealed on-air that Sasha and Naomi had been suspended indefinitely, and stripped of their Women's Tag Team titles. A tournament is expected to go ahead in the near future, with the winners receiving the vacated belts.
