Rumours over Sasha Banks' alleged dissatisfaction with her current employers received a fresh sprinkling of this spice this weekend thanks to the WWE's performer's very intriguing social media activity.

Sasha Banks was absent from this Monday's episode of Raw. Meanwhile, Bayley was soundly thrashed by Alexa Bliss in an inexplicable encounter.
