WWE unexpectedly changed the main event on Monday Night Raw after superstars Sasha Banks and Naomi left the arena prior to their planned involvement in the night’s closing match.
PWInsider first reported the news of Banks and Naomi, the current WWE women’s tag team champions, walking out on Monday’s taping in Norfolk, Virginia after taking issue with their roles in a six-pack challenge match to determine Raw women’s champion Bianca Belair’s next challenger.
“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,” the statement began.
According to the New York Post, Banks reportedly took her issues with the creative team to WWE chairman Vince McMahon, who passed on making any changes.
