WWE star Sasha Banks recently spoke with WhatCulture and you can check out the entire interview below. The following are some highlights:

Her goals in WWE:

“In NXT, I thought I achieved all I wanted. Changing women’s wrestling, having people respect me, yadda yadda. I want to win the Women’s title. I want to wrestle in Japan, I want to be the GM of Raw. One day at a time.”

Her Wrestlemania 32 attire:

“I just knew Eddie was such an inspiration to me. He’s the reason I wanted to be a wrestler. He was the first match I ever saw, I got instantly hooked. Everything just felt right. I just wanted that girl.”

Chyna’s passing:

“It’s huge, she really changed the game for women and how we’re looked at differently. Never did you see a woman like that in WWE until she stepped in there. She was something special, so that news was so sad to hear. She was special.”

Her quick ascension:

“I’ve only been in wrestling six years total. I legit came into WWE thinking I was going to be just another girl who did bra and panties matches, and I was okay with that because I wanted to be in WWE. When we finally got the opportunity to be like ‘no, I want to be more than this,’ I never wanted to go back to bra and panties matches because I saw that when I was growing up and it hurt me.”
