Hi, I'm Donna, the editor for WWE at EssentiallySports. I help our writers dot their i's, cross their t's, and ensure they get all their facts straight. I am particularly invested in the world of wrestling since it's unlike any other sport currently televised. The thought put behind orchestrating wacky storylines and building hype for months on end is incredible and something that I enjoy keeping track of. Particularly, I like the shenanigans Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio get up to as part of The Judgment Day, as well as watching what up-and-coming talents have to offer over at NXT.

During my time at ES, I have been doing live coverage of WWE SmackDown which currently hosts our ?Head of the Table? Roman Reigns. Prior to this, I worked as a reporter for a national newspaper, covering investigative stories on education, space, science, and tech. While these might seem worlds apart, I still enjoy getting into the nitty gritty of stories here at ES, picking apart details and finding out facts about wrestlers that most would overlook. In my spare time, I enjoy delving into my hobbies: writing, drawing, or just goofing off with my cat.

Is Sasha Banks returning to WWE? This is the question that is on everyone’s minds right now. After the star’s unceremonious departure from WWE back in 2022, she has been a staple at the Japan-based promotion, New Japan Pro Wrestling, NJPW. However, up until the middle of 2023, the topic of her returning to WWE was not something fans were discussing much. Now, as the star’s NJPW contract is set to expire, the rumors have been running wild. On top of that, she has just dropped a cryptic message that might hint at her rumored WWE return. WHAT IS SASHA BANKS PLANNING? Taking to the social media platform Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/stories/themercedesvarnado/3287409345673728450/], The Boss posted something that might be either a message for WWE or for her fans. The clip that she has posted is her NJPW theme music. The song titled Mone is used by her on the Japanese pro wrestling for her entry. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/sasha-banks-royal-rumble.jpg] Banks posted this hours after another rumor of her WWE started doing the rounds. Her theme music from WWE, titled Sky’s the Limit reappeared on the music streaming platform, Spotify. The song has been licensed by WWE and thus was taken down after she departed from WWE. But the song suddenly popping up has led fans to believe that preparations might be underway to get her back to WWE. Read More| CM Punk Posts Recent Pic of Sasha Banks in Hoodie & Shades Amidst Rumors of Her Royal Rumble 2024 Return [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wwe-news-cm-punk-posts-recent-pic-of-sasha-banks-in-hoodie-shades-amidst-rumors-of-her-royal-rumble-twenty-twenty-four-return/] But if she is returning to WWE, why would she post her NJPW theme? The answer might be quite simple and WWE had used a similar tactic for another star. WHAT IS WWE PLANNING? A few months ago, CM Punk was released from AEW. Following this, there were speculations that his WWE return was evident and fans might get to see him at the 2023 Survivor Series. However, WWE had denied all the rumors stating that they might not move forward with the deal. During the same time, CM Punk’s theme song, This Fire Burns from WWE started trending. The song was on top of the list of the most streamed WWE Entry Songs. A few days after the news came out, the Second City Saint [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cm-punk] was seen at the 2023 Survivor Series. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/cm-punk-10.jpg] WWE had issued a similar statement for Banks [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wwe-news-industry-sources-reveal-real-reason-behind-why-mercedes-mone-hasnt-been-signed-by-either-tony-khan-or-triple-h/]. They have stated that the talks of getting her are not moving forward. However, her song returning to streaming platforms under the WWE banner could mean either of the two things. One reason could be that it might be a technical glitch. Another could be that WWE has started the preparations. And Sasha Banks posting her NJPW theme on Instagram could be that she might be trying to throw fans “off the scent”. Which one of the two do you think might be the reason? Watch This Story: Every WWE Superstar Who Attacked Vince McMahon [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/wwe-news-from-the-undertaker-to-cm-punk-every-wwe-superstar-who-attacked-vince-mcmahon-stone-cold-steve-austin-dwayne-the-rock-johnson-brock-lesnar/] 

Sasha Banks dropped a cryptic message on her social media that might potentially be done to throw fans off the scent.

For me pro wrestling has two things that I like the most, storytelling and
fighting. Let?s just say movies are failing to keep me entertained in those
departments. I grew up watching WWF and not WWE and any hardcore fan will agree
that the two are not the same, but I love both iterations. I have gone from
watching ?Stone Cold? Steve Austin beat up his boss to Daniel Bryan fighting
against The Authority. At EssentiallySports let?s just say I write about the men
in tights who make money for men in suits. I especially like to write
speculative pieces as it is more fun to predict the ever "unpredictable"
storylines of WWE. Apart from wrestling, I like to scribble a couple of poems at
times and read something to keep my mind fertile. You can always catch me

<h2 style="text-align: center">CM Punk: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
Phillip Jack Brooks, better known as CM Punk, is an American professional wrestler currently signed with WWE and outcasted from All Elite Wrestling (AEW). He is a retired mixed martial artist who competed in the UFC. Punk also works as a commentator for Cage Of Fury fighting championships, a comic book writer, and an actor.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>What is the net worth of CM Punk?</b></h2>
As per CelebrityNetWorth, the net worth of CM Punk as of January 2024 is estimated to be $12 million. Punk is paid handsomely as a part of the WWE. Before that, he was the highest-earning ECW star in 2006-2008, earning around $200,000 to $300,000 annually. In WWE, he was earning $1 million annually in 2011.

The figure went up to 1.3 million in 2012-13. It touched $1.7 million in 2013-14. He was the cover star of the WWE 2K13 video game, which earned him another $200,000. CM Punk had earned enough brand value to earn millions wherever he went after he left WWE. That's why UFC was ready to pay him well, even as a novice. His first fight got him $500,000.

[caption id="attachment_1815690" align="aligncenter" width="1486"]<img class="wp-image-1815690 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0006336558h.jpg" alt="CM Punk net worth" width="1486" height="1920" /> Credits: Imago[/caption]

He got more out of the PPV revenue, which pushed his earnings past the one million mark. He was paid $503,500 for his second appearance. An additional $500,000 was given as an appearance fee and $3500 as a fight incentive. Punk's salary following his comeback to WWE after over nine years is kept under wraps as of now.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>All we need to know about the family of CM Punk?</b></h2>
Not much is known about CM Punk's family as, despite ruling headlines owing to his successful professional career, he has managed to keep his personal life away from the limelight. The only fact known about his parents is that his father was an architectural engineer while his mother was a homemaker. The former mixed martial artist also has five siblings.

His elder brother goes by the name Mike Brooks, while he also has a younger sister named Chaleen Lee Creeks. Meanwhile, no information is available about his other three siblings. Speaking of his love life, Punk married the American author AJ Lee, also known as April Jeanette Mendez, in June 2014.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>CM Punkâ€™s record in professional wrestling</b></h2>
Of the many hats he has donned, Punk is most famous for his professional wrestling stint that saw him revolutionize the WWE. Starting with Ring of Honor, Punk made his WWE debut in 2005. After being a mid-card wrestler for years, his rivalry with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-cena">John Cena</a> finally pushed him to the stratosphere.

He was the perfect anti-hero to the larger-than-life superhero persona of Cena. However, fans were firmly behind Punk and booed the face of the company to support the Straight Edge Superstar. His breakout moment was the famous pipe-bomb promo where he created an illusion of going off script and bashing Vince McMahon and his handling of the promotion. It did not go unnoticed as Punk began a record-breaking reign with the WWE title, which saw him remain champion for 434 days.

[caption id="attachment_1815695" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1815695 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0013342344h.jpg" alt="CM Punk" width="1920" height="1344" /> Credits: Imago[/caption]

That was not theÂ only record he held in the company. Punk is a 3-time World Heavyweight Champion (WWE), 2-time WWE Champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, World Tag Team Champion, and the winner of the 2008 and 2009 Money In The Bank ladder matches. CM Punk is the 7th longest-reigning WWE Champion of all time.

However, after all this, he had a tragic fallout with WWE over the alleged mishandling of his health and inappropriate booking. This saw Punk leaving professional wrestling for good and joining the UFC as a mixed martial artist.

Despite bringing a lot of attention, his MMA career in the Welterweight division was a flop, with him losing both his fights. After being away from WWE for over nine years, Punk made an unexpected comeback in November 2023.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>All about CM Punkâ€™s charity</b></h2>
CM Punk has been a quite charitable superstar throughout his career. He has fulfilled many wishes for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, as well as a similar charity called the Kids Wish Network.

Punk also joined Kerry Wood's Strike Zone Bowling Tournament, a tournament that sets out to improve the health of Chicago children through healthy eating and enhanced education. He has also painted customized chairs for the Chicago Cubs to be auctioned off, and in 2015, he auctioned off his first car, a 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo to charity.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>CM Punkâ€™s theme song</b></h2>
CM Punk has 'Cult of Personality' as his theme song. The song came out in 1988 and formed a part of the debut album 'Vivid' by the American rock band Living Colour.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banks: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Husband and More</b></h2>
Mercedes Kestner-Varnado, better known as Sasha Banks, is a female professional wrestler currently working as a free agent. There have been strong rumors of the professional wrestler signing a contract soon either with WWE or AEW. She established herself as one of the top stars of the division during her time in WWE owing to her spectacular performance in the SmackDown brand.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banks' early life</b></h2>
Sasha Banks was born on January 26, 1992, in Fairfield, California to Reo Varnado and Judith Varnardo. Sasha takes up African-American ethnicity from her dad while her mother hailed from Germany.

Moreover, Banks had a rather tough time growing up as she constantly moved places because of her autistic sibling. She mostly completed her education via an online medium.

[caption id="attachment_2058874" align="aligncenter" width="1600"]<img class="wp-image-2058874 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/sasha-banks-imago.jpg" alt="Sasha Banks" width="1600" height="1066" /> Image Credits: Imago[/caption]

Meanwhile, one surprising thing about the superstar is that she has good connections in the music industry as Snoop Dogg, Daz Dillinger, Brandy Norwood, and Ray. J are her cousins from her father's side.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banksâ€™ husband and children</b></h2>
Sasha Banks found love and her life partner in the former wrestler Sarath Ton, who was famous by his ring name Mikaze. The two met each other in 2010, as they were a part of the autonomous wrestling circuit and connected over their love for wrestling gear. As of now, Ton works as a costume designer in WWE and the couple does not have any kids.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banksâ€™ net worth 2024</b></h2>
As per Celebrity Net Worth, Banks has a net worth of $4 million. Her WWE contract offered her a salary of $250,000 per year. Ever since the success of the main event of the WrestleMania 37 match between Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair, the company gave Banks several chances to shine on the main roster and hence WWE increased her salary from $180,000 to $250,000. As of now, the star is earning $100,000 for every appearance as a free agent.

The brands also make sure to benefit from Sasha's social media following and thus she gets paid a handsome amount of $13,543 for every sponsorship post. Apart from endorsing brands like First We Feast and Kanndela, Banks also earns well through other sources of income like modeling and acting. She made he debut in Tinseltown with the series <em>The Mandalorian.Â </em>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banksâ€™ career timeline</b></h2>
Sasha started her training as a professional wrestler back in 2008. She performed for Chaotic Wrestling and debuted in an inter-gender tag team match. The ride was long and hard for her as she continued to lose all her initial matches, with a WWE run seeming very far. However, she exceeded all expectations. Her immaculate in-ring skills, along with her infectious energy and fire-spitting promise, quickly made her a valuable commodity. She even won the Chaotic Wrestling Women's Championship.

In 2011, NXT, the developmental brand of WWE, was looking to rebuild itself from scratch with some tough wrestlers and signed Sasha Banks. Her first-ever WWE match was against fan-favorite Paige. Even though she lost, she captured the attention of the fans. Her NXT run coincided with a never-before-seen elevation of women's wrestling in WWE. Many credit her along with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/charlotte-flair">Charlotte Flair</a>, Bayley, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/becky-lynch">Becky Lynch</a> for ushering in the women's revolution.

Sasha had a storied rivalry with Charlotte Flair going from best friends to worst enemies. She defeated Flair to become the NXT Women's Champion, immediately making clear that <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/triple-h/">Triple H</a> had big plans for her career. Her "The Boss" persona resonated with the fans and represented the modern female professional wrestler.

When Sasha finally left NXT, she did it in the best fashion possible. She lost to Bayley in a match that many call the best women's wrestling match in WWE history. After dropping the NXT Championship, she made her main roster debut on Raw as part of a stable with Tamina and Naomi.

She was part of the batch of wrestlers introduced by Stephanie McMahon, who revolutionized main-roster wrestling. Sasha would continue her fine run on the main roster again, feuding with Charlotte where the two even faced off in the first-ever women's Hell in a Cell match. She also had notable rivalries with Bayley and Becky Lynch on the main roster.

Sasha Banks entered a profitable partnership with Bayley in 2020, turning heel shockingly. She then won every belt in the WWE Women's division with Bayley, and the duo called themselves the 'Golden Role Models'. After a dramatic deterioration, Bayley turned on Banks, igniting a heated rivalry between the two. Sasha Banks came out on top after a thrilling match at Hell in a Cell, capturing the SmackDown Women's Championship from Bayley.

At present, she is working as a free agent and is expected to join either WWE or AEW.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banksâ€™ partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
Sasha Banks enjoys a good social media following and thus it should come as no surprise that she earns a good amount of money by influencing people. The wrestler charges $13,543 per sponsorship post and a handful of brands that she endorses include the likes of First We Feast and Kanndela. She is also the face of WWE video games and merchandise.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sasha Banksâ€™ major achievementsÂ </b></h2>
