On Sunday afternoon, Sasha Banks had exchanged in some friendly banter with Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara on Twitter. This led to an audio clip surfacing from a January 2016 edition of the Raw’s 4th Hour podcast. In the clip, a man that was introduced by the host as “The Greatest Ever” Sammy Guevara talked about being at RAW as an extra and made the following joke about Sasha Banks:
“Bro, Sasha Banks… oh my god… when I was at the WWE the other week I wanted to just go f***ing rape that woman.”
The clip led to Sammy Guevara’s name trending on Twitter with many fans outraged over the comments:
Re-uploading this so as not to give the guy that focused on his fucking tryout instead of the fact that Sammy Guevara says he wanted to r*pe Sasha Banks any fucking clout or credit when he stayed quiet on this for 4 and a half years.
This is fucking disgusting. pic.twitter.com/dbG7QWErXB— Bubba (@dubyacbub) June 22, 2020
Sammy Guevara was 22 when he made those comments about Sasha, he was old enough to know what he was saying is wrong.
There is no defending it and it's a damn shame, why can't these talented wrestlers just be normal fucking people?
It baffles me.

Sammy Guevara is such a fucking scumbag, I don’t care if it was “Joke” or not, you don’t go on a wrestling podcast and say that ever, that’s just unacceptable.

There is a video from 4 years ago implying that Sammy Guevara wanted to rape Sasha Banks
That is disgusting there is no way in any shape or form you can defend that

You can't defend Sammy Guevara for the thing that came out.
"Joking" about raping or wanting to rape someone is fucked up and is not okay.
There are wrestlers being accused, but openly speaking about wanting to rape someone is fucking disgusting.

Sammy Guevara needs to come out and apologize immediately. His choice of words describing Sasha Banks was both immature and disgusting.
Sammy, please come out with an apology ASAP.
Men, let’s start leading by example. Chivalry can be reignited. #showrespect

Sammy Guevara just straight up said he wanted to rape Sasha Banks. He was a grown ass 22 yr old when he said it. What’s sad is that this will get ignored by the same ppl who couldn’t wait to defend Bliss when a youtuber made fun of her. I hate the wrestling business.

What Sammy Guevara said was vile and disturbing and I can’t possibly defend it.
Sammy G needs to apologize immediately and Tony Khan needs to address this and take him off TV for a while and possibly sensitivity training.
I don’t think he should lose his job over this though.

Waking up this morning and I see Sammy Guevara trending and I see why. Fuck this. Fuck this year already. This is too much.
For those who don’t understand, Sammy said a R joke 4 years ago in a podcast that does sexual things saying that he would R Sasha Banks.
This is too much

Fuck Sammy Guevara too. Rape is not a fucking joke

So @TonyKhan I don't see you running to Twitter to ban Sammy Guevara, one of your own wrestlers, like you did with a guy who doesn't even work for you and ignored you (Hulk Hogan). Oh wait you also work with Mike Tyson. I guess rape is all good in AEW. "Locker room talk." ?
