WWE Superstar Sasha Banks was interviewed on “WWE: The Week” (see video below) and discussed using a Tornado DDT in a scene for the hit Disney+ show “The Mandalorian”.
For those unaware, Banks plays the Koska Reeves character in season two of the series, noting that she suggested doing the move. She said,
“It was all my idea,” Banks said. “I definitely wanted to bring the WWE style to The Mandalorian and Star Wars. I wanted my fans to know that was Sasha Banks, whether I had a helmet on or not, you just knew it was me. I remember going into the set that day and they wanted me to do something quite, quite different and I was like, ‘How about…can I just grab this guy and do (a tornado DDT)?’ They were like, ‘Oh my God, we love that,’ and they kept it.”
