When Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out ahead of a recent episode of Monday Night Raw, many in the wrestling world began to give their opinion on the matter. Although we are still waiting for Sasha and Naomi themselves to comment on their walkout and eventual suspension from WWE, one of their former co-workers, Ruby Soho, is now speaking her mind on the subject.
Speaking with CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri, Ruby says she supports the two women for taking a stand in their own career.
“I’m a very firm believer in everybody’s career and everybody’s experiences are different,” Ruby said. “No matter what company you work for, no matter who you are or what level you feel like you’re on or what level people portray you to be on. I feel like everyone’s experiences are different. I have for a long time considered Sasha and Naomi to be friends of mine. If that in the moment and in their heart of hearts is what they felt like they needed to do, then I can only understand from an outside perspective because you never know with that kind of stuff.
“You never know what they’re experiencing, what their journey is like to that point, and why they felt like they needed to do what they needed to do,” Ruby continued. “But at the end of the day, you can only just try and see them for who they are as people, and I adore them. So whatever they felt like they needed to do, I understand. Everybody handles things differently. Everybody has different experiences. So until you’re in the shoes of that person, you can’t always say what you would do. It’s definitely one of those things where I’m glad that they did what was best for them and what they felt was right at the time. I’m always for people standing up for themselves regardless of the circumstances. So if that’s what they felt like they needed to do. 100%.”
