Her fame makes her one of the most well-known celebrities not only in WWE’s history but also in the mainstream world.

Over the years, Sasha Banks has won numerous championships and en route to those wins, she has also competed in various iconic matches to prove herself to be perhaps the most technically gifted athlete on the women’s roster. The fair share of success does have the flip side, as well. There have been occasions more than once when she was depressed with WWE schedules and opted to walk out.

Sasha Banks disclosed her life-changing experience

“Being a professional wrestler, it’s so draining,” Sasha Banks said. “It’s so, so hard. We’re never home. We’re always banged up and always hurt. And once I got introduced to CBD my life just fully, fully changed. I noticed that anxiety I would get, once I took CBD it all just dissipated. I started to feel like myself again. I started [working] with Manny and Abby, and the more that we learned and grew, we just wanted to create our own project.”

It’s quite the story and a lot of fans and devotees of the WWE Superstar might feel inspired by it. Paige is another name who has a similar problem with drinking but now she has overcome it to go back to normal life.

While she’s no more with the WWE, Sasha Banks and Naomi were also indefinitely suspended from the company since walking out during the May 16th edition of WWE RAW. This happened after the two weren’t happy with the creative decisions around them. The move was met with a lot of backlashes, but apparently, they needed this break from the regularly featuring on WWE TV in an unhappy state of mind.
