Mercedes Mone F.K.A. Sasha Banks

 

                                 From the beginning of her tenure in NXT in 2012 it was apparent that Sasha Banks was not only going to be a star but one the biggest stars in the company. However, few probably realized how many barriers she would go on to break down.

Competing in NXT from 2012-2015, Banks would hold the NXT Women's Title for 192 days. She would ultimately drop the title to Bayley in a highly praised match at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn. Banks would culminate her NXT run with a ground breaking first-ever Women's Iron Man match at NXT Takeover: Respect where champion Bayley would retain. Banks was then called up to the main roster.

                   Banks run on the main roster has been nothing short of historic. Banks and Charlotte Flair would be the first women to main event a pay-per-view and compete in a Hell in the Cell match. Banks and Bayley would team to become the inaugural WWE Women's Tag Team Champions at WrestleMania in 2019. Most recently Banks and Bianca Belair became first black women to jointly headline a WrestleMania capping off night one of the 37th annual event. No doubt it will be "Boss Time" for years to come.
