Several WWE stars attended the premiere of "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever".
The newest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe premiered in Los Angeles on October 26 ahead of its theatrical release on November 11, 2022. Among numerous noteworthy names, Big E, Xavier Woods, Kofi Kingston, Jimmy Uso, Mercedes Varnado (Sasha Banks) and Trinity Fatu (Naomi) attended the premiere.

Kingston previously expressed his interest in being cast in a Black Panther project for Marvel. He has also paid homage to Thor by carrying a Mjolnir-like hammer to the ring. Additionally, Fatu has collaborated with Marvel in the past; she did an advertisement for "Thor: Love and Thunder."
Like Woods, Fatu posted an image of the group attending the premiere and stated that she missed them.

Varnado and Fatu previously attended the premiere of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law".
Banks and Naomi have been absent from WWE since they walked out of the May 16 episode of WWE RAW. The company stripped them of the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship and suspended them indefinitely. Since then, their status has remained unclear.
WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H previously discussed Banks' potential return. Check out his comments here.
