This blew Austin's mind.

WWE called Sasha up for live event tours in 2014. They were testing the waters with her, not only in front of live crowds but also backstage; the company wanted to see how Banks would integrate with women on Raw and SmackDown. It was not a smooth process.

Austin's eyes almost bugged out of his head when Banks detailed the rough treatment she received from some in the women's locker room. At one point, several (unnamed) ladies put Sasha's bags in the shower and turned it on. This bullying continued until Naomi and Tamina stepped in.

They were the ones who gave Banks a spot in the locker room to get dressed, and they ensured that nobody would kick her out. 'Stone Cold' was totally shocked that things were that vicious in 2014. Without her future 'Team B.A.D' colleagues, Sasha might've been rejected permanently by WWE's women.
