Sasha Banks is all about the money.
After four months away from WWE, Sasha Banks returned following WWE SummerSlam and was immediately thrust into the Women's Title picture. Long believing she is the best, both on-screen and off, Banks has a renewed sense of confidence upon her return to the company. And a new best friend in Vince McMahon.
"Since I came back, [Vince] gave me a really good contract," Sasha told We Have Cool Friends podcast. "We have this great relationship because we just talk money. He wants me to make him cool. So I'm helping him with his jokes, we text every single day, he sends me a private jet, he got me a bus. I'm so blessed and so lucky. I'm probably the first-ever woman to have her own bus. I'm making millions, did you not know that? I'm so rich. Me and Vince are like best friends now. I'm so happy that me and Vince have this relationship where we can have fun. He slides into my DMs, I'm like, 'Why are you in my DMs? Just call me up.'"
Fightful reported on Sept. 28 that Banks agreed to a new contract upon her return.
Banks' return was the subject of a recent episode of WWE Chronicle, where Banks opened up about her depression while she was away. Banks stepped away from the spotlight following WrestleMania 35, reportedly unhappy that she and Bayley lost the Women's Tag Team Titles after believing they would be given a lengthy run. Now that she's back, she has new goals in mind.
"I really did accomplish the feeling of that 10-year-old girl. I felt like I've always had to fight for her, live for her dreams, make things happen. I felt like I was fighting for nothing anymore because I have accomplished so much and more than I've ever dreamt," she said. "Now, for me, getting old, I have to have more dreams and focus on more things like making money, signing millions, getting my own bus, getting my own private jet, thank you, Vince. And becoming best friends with him. Those are my goals of being 27, going to 28. Just really keeping a positive mind, healthy mind, healthy body, and just loving life."
Sasha's new outlook became even more apparent when she was asked about Michael Cole's infamous "IT'S BOSS TIME!" call when Banks makes her entrance. Banks said of the call, "I think it's cool because I'm about to get [merchandise] with it. The more sayings, the more merch, the more money. I'm all about the money right now."
Banks is scheduled to challenge Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's Championship inside Hell in a Cell this Sunday, Oct. 6, at WWE Hell in a Cell.
