I highly doubt they didn't want her anymore or she can't go back, she just can't go back on her terms. Which is understandable with how she left in the first place and now that she's apparently asking to own or share ownership of her WWE name. Disrespected the company, dropped the titles on desk, hurt the women's roster convincing your friend to leave with you, now you want negotiations. I don't blame them.

Yeah, you can wrestle in Japan & Jacksonville all you want, have fun, take your internet fans with you. She won't get the check in Japan and she won't get the outside spotlight wrestling in AEW so there's going to be issues at these stops too.

I think she thinks she's Hogan and it's too bad she's the wrong sex to even draw half a fraction or she might have something. Never seen somebody gassed so much off Black Twitter like this girl lol
She let twitter and people on social media gas her up into fukking up her own leverage without even realizing it.

Meh, she can still get her outside spotlight wrestling in AEW
I'm sure she can do more of what she's been doing if she's part time now but I don't think that's been much

She's going to an environment that's closer to 700k than 1.5/2m, so less than half. Whatever cache she has, it's infinitely more valuable and amplified with the extra 1.3 million and WWE's reach as a company. If I'm in charge of marketing somewhere why would I choose Mercedes and 800k over Bianca, Liv, Becky etc and anywhere from 1.7 (if I get the first hour of RAW) to 2 mil? It doesn't make sense and wouldn't happen no matter what you think of Sasha Banks.

I didn't say the well's dry but I don't think it's just business as usual either, especially once you factor in the company she'll work for, which companies do. Which is fine because if it was a concern she wouldn't be leaving.

Saraya (Paige) has a tag team match with Hayter/Baker for next year after Wrestle Kingdom in January. That AEW deal is likely already done since Sarays hasnt chosen a partner yet. Shes got her money. Adderall Man got her now

The next generation just showed out last night at Deadline.

just don't see superstar potential much less Sasha Bank HOF/GOAT potential, yet.

exactly... matches on they own don't create superstars. Sasha became a star because of her aura which most of the women don't have

If true then I think this is a wrap for her WWE career. They could've easily given her whatever she was asking for and they didn't budge, at some point you have to look at this from a business perspective. If you were an employer would you ever fully trust someone who walked out on you twice? I think HHH & Stephanie decided that it was just time to move on. Now she can go have her dream matches and the WWE can stop stalling with the women's tag scene.
It’s only fake fighting breh.

Exactly, it’s a business so she’ll be back. Even if it’s a few years from now. Fans be feeling more betrayed then the companies. Not that serious. It’s a business and there will be money to be made.
It's still a lesson that she and other wrestlers could learn from this situation in not overhyping your leverage and that every wrestling company isn't going to continue to bend over backwards for you everytime you walk out there to. So with that point, that particular poster is correct.

Her fans need to learn that lesson as well as they helped contribute to what's happening now with her.

:dahell: what's happening is she named her price and stips which no doubt include fewer dates. She just completed a movie shoot.. she has more modeling dates coming.. she obviously doesn't wanna be tied down right now. That's negotiation.

if anything other wrestlers should follow suit. People in general should do what they want to do so long as they can provide for themselves and their fam.

A lot of people over Covid learned that lesson.. to not be a slave to your employer. Apparently u haven't learned that.

She’s walked out on the job before COVID-19 happened, so that excuse in her case doesn’t fly.

That’s typical WWE smear bullshyt. I expect stories along those lines to pop up in the next month about Mercedes though, and we know why.
