Didn’t expect to see Sasha Banks on this list? Nope, nor did we! “The Boss” has been very vocal throughout her NXT and WWE career about how she always grew up wanting to be a wrestler, but it turns out that she actually considered calling it quits before she made it to the big time.

John Cena Snr revealed on Boston Wrestling's podcast that he spoke to Banks during a show in Massachusetts several years ago and she had discussed potentially ending her dream of becoming a pro wrestler.

He said (quotes via Fightful):

"I was in Webster (Massachusetts) doing a show with her and she was going to kind of quit pro wrestling. I said to her, 'Don't do it, there's a lot behind you. You've got a lot to offer.' Then next thing I know she's in the WWE. She's an outstanding athlete. She has a good feel for this business. She doesn't get in to play the game, she just has fun doing it, and she's really a fan."
