NXT Battleground is nearing its 2024 edition that will take place on the 9th of June. The former NXT superstar’s presence would naturally make sense. After dropping plenty of hints recently, Mone, whose ring name in the WWE was Sasha Banks, has dropped yet another sign by posting a video with a specific song.
In her latest Instagram post, Mone can be seen posing for different pictures during a photo shoot for her AEW gimmick. However, the background song she posted on the reel was ‘U My Everything‘. That’s a song by Sexyy Red ft. Drake.

Some podcasters also believe this is the route the female star’s wrestling career could take, considering the negative reviews her AEW run is getting.
