#5 Friends: Paige

Sasha Banks is good friends with Paige

It wouldn't be hyperbole to state that the pair of Sasha Banks and Paige is truly made for each other. The Boss and The Anti-Diva grew up with the dream of becoming professional wrestlers and making it to the big leagues of the WWE, and guess what...They did that and so much more!

Banks first broke through in the WWE back in 2012 as a part of NXT, where she wrestled the likes of Paige, Charlotte Flair and Bayley. Banks and Paige are said to have shared a great camaraderie dating back to their NXT days, and continue to do so even today...In fact, in December of last year when Paige suffered a career-ending injury after receiving a stiff kick at the hands of Banks during a multi-woman match at a live event, Banks was one of Paige's most vocal supporters during the heart-breaking phase of her career.

On a similar note, when certain sections of fans began blaming Banks for ending Paige's career, the Anti-Diva requested that they stop harassing Banks. Paige strongly emphasized that the injury was an accident and her friend, Sasha, wasn't at fault...

#4 Friend: Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns is good friends with Sasha Banks

Well, love him or hate him, "The Big Dog" Roman Reigns currently just so happens to be the face that runs the place in the WWE. Reigns is, beyond the shadow of a doubt, one of the most polarizing figures in all of sports-entertainment.

Notwithstanding, while the Shield's muscle may have hordes of wrestlers as well as fans who happen to hate him, The Big Dog has no shortage of supporters either. Count Sasha Banks in the latter group, as she has time and again chosen to strongly voice her support for Reigns.

Banks interestingly went on to publicly explain that the biggest reason behind the large majority of pro-wrestling fans hating Reigns despite him being technically being a face in WWE, is that most male fans are jealous of his looks and athleticism. Well, despite receiving a ton of backlash over her comments against the fans, Banks continues to stand by her words and support her good friend Roman...

#3 Probably Doesn't Like: Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan and Sasha Banks have clashed in the past

This one might come as somewhat of a surprise to the WWE Universe, however if you happen to remember the lead-up to WrestleMania 31, Sasha Banks' public stance on Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns would definitely come to mind. Banks revealed that she'd prefer Reigns to challenge then-WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar for the title at WM 31.

Moreover, Banks alluded that Reigns was much more deserving of the aforesaid main-event spot at WrestleMania 31 rather than Bryan. Banks and Bryan's real-life heat didn't quite stop there, as in the months that followed, the latter retired from in-ring competition due to a suspected brain lesion.

Well, Banks dealt with her own injury in the days that followed and then inexplicably went on to tease potentially having to retire much like Bryan. Addressing the same, on an episode of Talking Smack, Bryan expressed his displeasure regarding Sasha's subtle jab at him. Regardless, Bryan returned to in-ring action after being medically-cleared earlier this year, and Banks subsequently congratulated him for the same...

#2 Friend: AJ Styles

Sasha Banks is good friends with WWE Champion AJ Styles

AJ Styles may very well be one of the most beloved wrestlers in the history of the sport. The Phenomenal One is excellent in the ring, on the mic as well as when it comes to his backstage camaraderie with fellow talents. With that in mind, it's more than feasible that the WWE Champion has made more than a few friends in the locker room.

Sasha Banks has, on multiple occasions, expressed her desire to work an inter-gender match with AJ Styles. While appearing together on multiple editions of WWE Superstar Xavier Woods' video game show UpUpDownDown, Banks has on the odd occasion teased a potential match with Styles.

While that may not come to fruition in the WWE, Banks' strong bond of friendship with Styles is indeed unquestionable...

#1 Probably Doesn't Like: Lana

Lana and Sasha Banks aren't on the best of terms

Back in 2017, Sasha Banks and former WWE Superstar Summer Rae began using a rather strange hashtag on Twitter. Banks and Rae took subtle jabs at SmackDown Live Superstar Lana, with the following hashtag--#BL2017.

The aforesaid hashtag is said to imply "Block Lana 2017"--something that Banks and Rae got up and running on social media last year. Well, not one to take things lying down, Lana on her part started liking tweets that trashed Banks' backstage demeanor, wrestling skills and overall persona.

The real-life heat between Banks and Lana is till date something that hasn't quite been settled, so to speak. Regardless, here's hoping that these two Superstars eventually bury the hatchet.
