WWE star Naomi is set to make her first appearance in the limelight since she and Sasha Banks walked out during an episode of Raw back in May.

The 16th of May edition of Raw will live in infamy as that was the night that WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Naomi decided to leave the show despite being advertised in the main event.

This led veteran announcer Michael Cole to announce on SmackDown just days later that both women had been suspended indefinitely by WWE and had been stripped of the Women’s Tag Team Title. The pair are said to have handed over the physical title belts to Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis before they left Raw.

Rumours have swirled regarding the future of Sasha Banks with multiple reports saying that The Boss has been released by WWE but news on her tag team partner has been somewhat quieter.

But now the former SmackDown Women’s Champion is set for a public appearance as she is advertised to take part in an upcoming episode of Kevin Hart’s Celebrity Game Face.

The show which emerged in 2020 during the pandemic sees couples indulging in games that they can play in their own home. Naomi’s husband is current Unified Raw and SmackDown Tag Team Champion Jimmy Uso but he has not been mentioned in advertising for the show.
