WWE

A NXT star has deleted their Twitter account after controversial Sasha Banks comment caused a huge backlash.

Sasha Banks has been in the headlines as of late due to the ongoing speculation about her WWE return following walking out on the company in May.

However, comments made by a NXT talent has caused her name to be discussed again.

Amari Miller took to social media today to praise Athena and set a goal for her career. In a tweet, she posted the following:

Shoutout to Ember Moon being the first and only African American @WWENXT Womens Champion..

NXT goal! Let’s make it 2!!

Fans were quick to reply to remind Miller that Sasha Banks was actually the first African American NXT Women’s Champion.

Amari responded with:

No thanks:) Sasha is German and black I said African American:)

The tweet and reply caused a huge backlash across Twitter, which Miller had another response to.

Miller posted a photo of Sasha Banks’ wikipedia page noting that she is of German descent and African American. She wrote:

For everyone on Twitter Fully Black NXT champion(Ember Moon)

Im aware what I posted

Sasha is great and legendary for sure let’s never forget!

Since this reply didn’t stop the backlash, Amari Miller then deleted her Twitter account.

Fellow NXT star Edris Enofe posted a tweet in response to the series of posts.
