WWE indefinitely suspended the two superstars and vacated the Women’s Tag Team Championship after they walked out during the May 16 episode of RAW. While Naomi’s status remains uncertain, Banks has now reportedly left the company.
Russo, WWE’s former head writer, discussed the duo’s future storyline prospects before news of Banks’ reported exit broke. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling’s “Writing With Russo,” he explained how Naomi’s husband Jimmy Uso could confront Vince McMahon about his wife’s suspension.
Watch the video above to hear Russo’s full idea on how WWE should reintroduce Naomi to television.
How the Naomi and Sasha Banks situation could create a storyline for Vince McMahon
Before Naomi’s walkout, Jimmy Uso said the two-time SmackDown Women’s Champion was “very likely” to join The Bloodline one day. The faction currently consists of Roman Reigns, The Usos, special counsel Paul Heyman, and honorary member Sami Zayn.
As part of his idea, Russo would add Reigns and the rest of The Bloodline to the storyline before bringing Banks back at a later date.
Russo suggested the idea before The Wall Street Journal published an article about the WWE board investigating Vince McMahon. According to the report, the WWE Chairman agreed to pay $3 million to a former employee he allegedly had an affair with.
