Sasha Banks who has gone by her WWE name for quite a long time has reverted back to her real name on Twitter.


Many wrestlers have done this in the past for various reasons. A lot of WWE stars were changing their usernames into their real names in order to fall in line with WWE’s policy regarding contact with third party apps.


Sasha however, does not seem to fall in that category. It seems that she is keeping herself open to business outside of the WWE in case she ever steps outside of the promotion. She has broken into public consciousness as off late and is very popular within the WWE franchise as well.

Archie is a WWE and UFC Editor/Author at the SportsRush. Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
