Sasha Banks crossed over to the Star Wars universe by appearing as Koska Reeves on "Star Wars: The Mandalorian" for season two of the series.
Banks brought some wrestling flavor to her appearance in "The Mandalorian," hitting a tornado DDT in the season finale of the show.
Appearing on WWE The Week, Banks discussed using the move in a galaxy far away.
"It was all my idea," she said. "I definitely wanted to bring the WWE style to The Mandalorian and Star Wars. I wanted my fans to know that was Sasha Banks, whether I had a helmet on or not, you just knew it was me. I remember going into the set that day and they wanted me to do something quite, quite different and I was like, 'How about...can I just grab this guy and do (a tornado DDT)?' They were like, 'Oh my God, we love that,' and they kept it."
I can’t get over how amazing Sasha Banks is as a Mandalorian.
