Now, Sasha Banks is the only name on this list that isn't confirmed to have handed in a request for release, but there have been overwhelming rumours over the past month or so that The Boss will indeed be leaving WWE very soon, if she gets her way.

It's clear Banks is unhappy, from reported backstage WrestleMania incidents to canceled TV appearances, to unfollowing WWE on social media, to rumours that Banks would even refuse to turn up for work.

It's been reported that, following her title loss at WrestleMania, Banks was involved in two altercations backstage - with Dana Brooke allegedly receiving a busted open lip in a backstage scuffle, and another seeing Banks and Bayley take to the locker room floor to lie down and loudly, verbally voice their displeasure, then again outside one of their hotel rooms.

As far as we know, though, Banks is still contracted to WWE, despite now being off of television and sporting brown hair. It's reported that Banks has been allowed to take time away to think about the future, while being at a stalemate with WWE in regards to her status.
