Sasha Banks hasn't been seen on WWE programming since reportedly walking out on the company after dropping the Women's Tag Team Championships to The IIconics at WrestleMania 35, but it looks like 'The Boss' might be back in time for SummerSlam.

Local advertising in Toronto, Ontario for the 11 August event features Banks alongside Roman Reigns, Becky Lynch, and other active roster members:-

The usual "card subject to change" disclaimer applies, but this is in line with recent reports suggesting that Banks and WWE have mended fences, and that her return to programming is imminent.

Sasha had a busy weekend on Japan, posing with the likes of Pro Wrestling NOAH star Naomichi Marufuji and a host of joshi wrestlers for social media snaps:-

It's almost as if 'The Boss' is trying to be noticed.

Banks' absence has been characterised by her cryptic social media activity, with the former Raw Women's Champion posting all manner of teases since embarking on her hiatus. Whatever happens with her next, let's hope it's best for all involved parties, as she's way too talented a performer to be sitting on a shelf gathering dust like this.
