Mercedes Kaestner-Varnado (born January 26, 1992) is an American professional wrestler currently signed to WWE, where she is a former NXT Women's Champion and three-time Raw Women's Champion. She performs on the Raw brand under the ring name Sasha Banks. She previously wrestled on the independent circuit under the ring name Mercedes KV, most notably for Chaotic Wrestling, where she once held the Chaotic Wrestling Women's Championship.
Her match against Bayley at NXT TakeOver: Respect on October 7, 2015, was the first women's match to ever headline a WWE event, the first women's Iron Man match, and the longest women's match in WWE history at the time with a length of 30 minutes. In 2016, she and Charlotte Flair became the first women to headline a WWE pay-per-view event and the first to compete in a Hell in a Cell match, (both at Hell in a Cell in 2016), the first women to main event Raw in a women's match since 2004, and the first women to win the Pro Wrestling Illustrated award for Feud of the Year; they also set the new record for a women's match at Roadblock: End of the Line at over 34 minutes.
