WWE CEO Vince McMahon “laughed” backstage after Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of RAW.
During the May 16th episode of RAW, Banks and Naomi left the show due to creative differences with the planned main event.
Banks and Naomi disagreed with the plan for them to enter singles feuds for the SmackDown and RAW Women’s Championships, believing it lessened the importance of the WWE Women’s Tag Titles they held at the time.
On commentary, Graves said the two had acted unprofessionally for walking out.
Speaking on his After the Bell podcast, the RAW commentator addressed the backlash he received saying:
“I walked back through the curtain and I walked up to our fearless leader, and he had a grin on his face. ‘Hey, it’s live TV, nothing can go wrong, right?’ And he just laughed and shook my hand and went about his business.”
Banks and Naomi have been stripped of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships and are serving out an indefinite suspension.
It’s been reported that both women’s contracts are set to expire this year.
