Sasha Banks Injured - Suffering From Possible Concussion?

Two differing opinions exist as to the current status of Sasha Banks, who was not seen on WWE television this week.

Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter a few days ago that Banks was being kept off WWE TV for storyline purposes, with the current focus of the Women's division being focused on Charlotte's feud with Natalya.

Curiously, Squared Circle Sirens noted on Saturday that Sasha Banks is instead suffering from an injury and is infact not being kept out of the picture for storyline reasons.

The website claims that a member of WWE's staff informed them exclusively that Sasha suffered a head injury during the May 15th live event in Charlottesville, Virginia when she teamed with Becky Lynch and Paige to defeat Lana, Eva Marie and Dana Brooke. Banks has not been seen in a ring since and has been replaced by Becky Lynch and Summer Rae respectively in the past few house shows, and by Paige for an advertised meet and greet.

Sasha reportedly was struck in the head by the referee for that match in what was dubbed a freak accident and perhaps fears over a concussion could explain WWE's caution in having Banks kept away from programming.
