The planned main event of tonight’s (May 16) WWE Raw show was changed from advertised, due to Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Naomi legitimately walking out of the show.
WWE have since released a statement, claiming the two said they were ‘being disrespected’ as the champions. However, that is apparently just the start of it.
WrestleVotes took to Twitter later in the night, reporting that there was tension backstage ‘all day’ prior to the pair walking out of the show.
They tweeted:
Source notes the WWE statement regarding the Sasha / Naomi walkout is just the baseline of the details. The tension leading up to the walkout was palpable all day, with both superstars upset at something that transpired. More details will come out in due time on this.
