Sasha Banks on Total Divas: “It’s Not For Me, I Won’t Ever Be On That Show”

April 20, 2016

WWE Diva Sasha Banks was a recent guest on Sirius XM’s Busted Open Radio, and during the interview Banks talked about how she perceives herself to be more of a “wrestler” than a Diva. She also weighed-in on the Total Divas reality show and had the following to say:

“There’s always going to be Divas, and I’m in a category of wrestlers. It’s ok. There’s something for them and there’s something for me. It’s not for me. I won’t ever be on that show. It’s fine. People like it, people watch it so let them enjoy it.”

Banks went on to discuss her goal of changing women’s wrestling, her cousin Snoop Dogg being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and more.
