During a recent media conference call to promote next weekend’s SummerSlam event, WWE Women’s Champion Sasha Banks spoke about a number of topics, including the backstage reaction to her title win, Mick Foley’s recent blog praising her and how the brand extension is affecting WWE’s female athletes. Here are some highlights, courtesy of Planeta Wrestling:

– When asked if she’d consider adding a stipulation to her match against Charlotte at SummerSlam, she replied, “No stipulation, no! I just want to whip her butt.” She added that she’s looking forward to the event being in Brooklyn, and that last year’s great match with Bayley at NXT: Brooklyn wasn’t a fluke.

– She wants to be remembered as the greatest women’s wrestler of all time. She wants future generations of women’s wrestlers to study her as what they strive to be.

– Regarding Mick Foley’s recent blog about her Women’s championship victory, she was proud to hear the locker room was watching her match on the monitors backstage. In previous years men wouldn’t watch the women’s matches and when they did, it was to mock the women. Now she, Charlotte and others are putting on some of the best matches on the card.

-The most important thing she learned since joining the main roster was to be herself and always stand up for what you believe in.

– She would love to have a Fatal-4 Way with the Four Horsewomen again, and hopes that it can happen at a WrestleMania.

– She thinks the brand extension is a great opportunity for more of WWE’s women to shine. Prior to the draft, it was hard for everybody to get television time. She hopes SmackDown gets a proper women’s division and she’ll continue setting the bar on RAW.
