WWE have confirmed that ‘The Legit Boss’ Sasha Banks will be joining the ‘Balor Club’ as Finn Balor’s partner heading into the challenge.
WWE.com had the following to say about the pairing:
“Whether competing in the history-making WWE Iron Man Match against Bayley in NXT or inside Hell in a Cell against Charlotte Flair, the innovative Banks is the very definition of a trailblazer. With the distinction of being the first-ever Universal Champion and the longest-reigning NXT Champion in history, Bálor is definitely cut from the same cloth as the four-time Raw Women’s Champion.”
Here is the hilarious video where Kurt Angle announces who Banks’ partner will be for the ‘Mixed Match Challenge.’ Wait for the surprise.
Joking about Balor’s pose with her shades, fans can already see the chemistry between the two. Will you ‘bank’ on the ‘Balor Club’ in the challenge?
After the announcement, hear what Banks and Balor had to say when talking to Renee Young. Could ‘Demon Boss’ be victorious? You’ll have to watch and find out.
The competitors will participate in the tournament to win $100, 000 for the ‘Raw’ team’s charity. The tournament begins on January 16 at 10 ET/7 PT and is available exclusively on Facebook Watch.
