WWE superstar Sasha Banks has undergone eye surgery and revealed her new look weeks after being suspended without pay.

The former Raw, SmackDown and Women’s Tag Team Champion – who walked out of Raw last month alongside tag partner Naomi while the show was underway – is currently suspended indefinitely and all merchandise was pulled from the company’s online store.

Neither star has commented on the incident or the fallout, but Sasha has now given fans a peek at her new natural style as she ditched her usual dyed locks.

The Legit Boss underwent Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) eye surgery this week, and Newsom Eye – the ophthalmologist centre which did the operation – has shared some before and after photos.

In a video before surgery, Banks used her real name and said: ‘What’s up everyone, I am Mercedes Vernado and I’m here at Newsom Eyes to get my new eyes – and I can’t wait!

‘Apparently I need them because look at my sticker guys! I put them upside down! So, I can’t see – so I cannot wait to get my new eyes so I can see right!’

In WWE’s statement immediately after the incident last month, the company claimed Naomi and Sasha ‘walked into WWE Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis’ office with their suitcases in hand, placed their tag team championship belts on his desk and walked out’.

The company continued: ‘They claimed they weren’t respected enough as tag team champions.

‘And even though they had eight hours to rehearse and construct their match, they claimed they were uncomfortable in the ring with two of their opponents – even though they’d had matches with those individuals in the past with no consequence.

‘Monday Night Raw is a scripted live TV show, whose characters are expected to perform the requirements of their contract. We regret we were unable to deliver, as advertised, tonight’s main event.’

During a subsequent episode of SmackDown, veteran commentator Michael Cole addressed the non-storyline issue directly on screen and revealed the duo have also been stripped of the Women’s Tag Team Championships.

In a strongly worded statement on-air, he said: ‘Sasha Banks and Naomi let us all down. The WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions walked off the show and walked out of the building during Monday Night Raw.’

He added: ‘Their actions disappointed millions of WWE fans and their fellow superstars.’
