WWE SmackDown Live Superstar Sasha Banks recently took to Twitter and made a cryptic tweet concerning WWE Champion and the #1 entrant in the upcoming Royal Rumble match, Brock Lesnar. Banks wrote: "Sasha Lesnar" in her tweet, leading to fans coming in droves and inquiring about the meaning of said tweet. Check out the tweet below:
There were a few who jokingly asked Banks whether she would be entering the Men's Royal Rumble match. Interestingly, women participating in the Men's Rumble match isn't anything new, and has been done several times in the past. Nia Jax entered the men's match last year after failing to win the women's version earlier in the night.
Sasha isn't the first to mention Lesnar in her tweet lately, as former WWE Divas Champion Paige also joked about entering the Men's Rumble match and taking Lesnar to Suplex City. The joke garnered a response from WWE Backstage analyst and special contributor CM Punk, who indicated that he's planning to do the same thing at the upcoming PPV. Lesnar was recently announced by Paul Heyman as the #1 entrant in the 2020 Royal Rumble match, even though The Beast still has the WWE Championship on his shoulder.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
