April 2, 2016

WWE Diva Sasha Banks spoke with Brian Fritz of Between The Ropes during WrestleMania’s media day, and the following are some highlights. You can watch the entire interview in the video player below:

-Sasha talks how it feels to be at WrestleMania, and she says it’s surreal to see her face on promo posters for WrestleMania when it feels like yesterday that she was in NXT.

-Sasha talks about how she keeps journals of everything that has happened to her on her way to WWE, and she is still keeping record of everything that is happening with her now.

-Sasha talks about the death of her favorite wrestler, Eddie Guerrero, and what it was like for her when he passed away after she studied him for so long during his wrestling career.

-Sasha talks about the big year she had in 2015 with Bayley and their Iron Man match, and she says it all started at the Takeover Fatal Four Way event, when the fans felt the women stole the show. She added she tried to carry that momentum to the main roster and when she returned to NXT to face Bayley at Takeover Brooklyn it felt like a WrestleMania moment for her and the other “Four Horsewomen.”

-Sasha says it feels very cool to have helped revolutionize the Divas Division in WWE, and she says her and the other women aren’t just female performers or Divas, they are superstars.

-On the possibility of the Divas Division going back to the “Womens Division”, she thinks that would be very cool, as she considers herself a Womens wrestler and that’s what she grew up watching.
