After Bayley turned on her, Sasha Banks is back to being a babyface. However, during a recent chat with The New Day on their "Feel The Power" podcast, The Boss explained that being a role model to fans isn't something she's interested in making a reality moving forward. 

"I can only be me. I can’t have that pressure," Banks explained. "I can only do the best I can for myself. If little girls want to look up to that and take a little bit for themselves, then that’s all I can do. I can’t be like, hey, you have to follow my lead. You have to be yourself. You have to find your own journey. You have to see what works for you guys."

"You can take little pieces from everybody," she adds, "but I’m just trying to be the best I can be."

Of course, it's going to be difficult for Banks not to be a role model, especially as she's about to join the Star Wars franchise courtesy of Disney+ series The Mandalorian! "It still has not hit me," Banks admitted. "There is not much I can talk about yet. All I can say is I’m in it. I can’t believe it. I’m so excited and can’t wait for everybody to see it."

"Season 2 is going to be so incredible. I have not seen the episodes. I probably won’t even know what’s going on actually (until it airs). It’s so secretive."

What are your thoughts on Banks' comments?
