Naomi Shuts Down Comparisons With NXT’s Lash Legend

Naomi Shuts Down Comparisons With NXT’s Lash Legend WWE

Former SmackDown Women’s Champion Naomi has shared her honest thoughts on comparisons between herself and NXT star Lash Legend.

On the September 27 edition of NXT, Lash Legend and Wendy Choo cut promos on one another. Following the segment, a Twitter user called Legend an ‘off-brand Naomi’.

Addressing this comparison, Naomi replied:

Absolutely NOT! Lash is in her own lane. I’m very proud of her and I look forward to her growth and success. Please stop comparing us black women for the wrong reasons. Respectfully.✌️

Naomi hasn’t appeared on WWE TV since she and Banks walked out on the May 16 WWE Raw taping. While it was reported in early-August that both stars had agreed in principle to return to TV, Naomi and Banks have been focusing on other non-wrestling projects in recent weeks.

The duo notably walked the runway during New York Fashion Week. Banks has also indicated that she’s focusing on a music project outside the ring.

Naomi recently shared an advertisement post for the digital release of Thor: Love & Thunder, prompting speculation about her status, following controversy in recent years surrounding third-party deals.
