Fatu and Varnado recently appeared together at the premiere of Marvel’s She-Hulk, and before that, they made their first post-WWE public appearance at C2E2. That appearance drew a major turnout, though it’s unknown when their next appearance at a convention will take place. Reports previously said that any wrestling event appearances wouldn’t happen until 2023, but recently it has been rumored that WWE has been in talks with Fatu and Varnado to smooth things over.
Triple H’s recent takeover of WWE Creative has also been rumored to have a role in those talks taking place, and Triple H was asked about Banks possibly making a return in an interview with Ariel Helwani of BT Sport.
“Time will tell,” Levesque said. “Communication breakdowns are terrible, and there is a communication breakdown there for whatever reason. Starting back up that communication is not a difficult process, but it can be a process … But she’s [an] unbelievably talented young woman that can do just about anything she wants. It just comes down to what does she want to do now with her life, her career, whatever that is. Like, the passion clearly for what we do, there’s a passion for other things as well. So it comes down to what does she want to do. Because it’s gotta be right for her, gotta be right for everybody.”
“She is, I think as you’ve seen over the course of her career …. just an unbelievable performer that I believe in with everything that I have,” Levesque said. “[She] is one of the biggest stars in our business.”
