Sasha Banks, Naomi Walk Out of Monday Night Raw

Sasha Banks and Naomi, two of the most well-known names on the WWE roster today, has been trending on social media ever since news came out that they have walked out of Monday Night Raw on May 16.

According to a report by Fightful, "it was initially announced that the show was going to be headlined by a six-pack challenge featuring Sasha Banks, Naomi, Asuka, Becky Lynch, Nikki ASH, and Doudrop to determine the number one contender for the Raw Women's Championship."

However, the main event of the show was changed and WWE released a statement that the two women, who were then the Women's Tag Team Champions, had entered the office of "WWE Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis' office with their suitcases in hand, placed their tag team championship belts on his desk, and walked out."

Much has been speculated on about the two wrestlers' decision to walk out of Raw. Many have said that they were unhappy with the direction their tag team was heading to. There has also been some speculation that they were unhappy with how that particular main event was being booked.
