5 reasons why Sasha Banks was not at the Royal Rumble event

#4 Her absence would help the company

Sasha Banks' absence could help in creating better stories

Sasha Banks was not involved in the SmackDown Women's Championship match, and so she could have accompanied her friend to the ring during the match with Lacey Evans. But that wouldn't have made enough waves, and enticed the fans to know about her as has her absence.

This would help the WWE Universe get involved in any storyline as they would want to know where Bayley's best friend is. And as we have seen in the past, the company knows how to sell a story to the fans in the most effective manner.

This curiosity will result in more amazing segments, and also help Bayley because she is the champion, and it requires effort and skill to be at the top of the chain. Bayley could also stir it up by adding some names that are involved in her best friend's absence from WWE TV.
