Sasha Banks Injury Update Following WWE Live Event Incident

By Marc Middleton

Sasha Banks is reportedly dealing with a sprained leg.

As noted, Banks wrestled SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair at Sunday's WWE live event in Fayetteville, NC, and appeared to hurt her leg or knee while taking an over-the-knee backbreaker. She kicked out of a pinfall but stayed on the mat while the referee checked her out, before they went to the finish with Flair getting the win after a Natural Selection. Banks was then helped to the back.

In an update, PWInsider reports that word going around Monday's RAW was that Banks suffered a sprained leg during the match with Flair.

There is no word yet on if Banks will miss any ring time because of the injury. The average recovery time for a sprained ankle can be anywhere from 3-4 weeks or 3-6 months, depending on the severity.

Banks posted an update for fans later that night, writing, "I'm good [fist emoji] Thank you for the love always. [heart emoji]"
