Season 2 of The Mandalorian came to a close on Friday, capping off an eight-episode run full of Easter eggs and stunning developments. WWE star Sasha Banks, whose real name is Mercedes Varnado, made her return to the show as a young Mandalorian named Koska Reeves. She joined Bo Katan (Katee Sackhoff), Cara Dune (Gina Carano) and Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) for a daring rescue aboard Moff Gideon’s Imperial Cruiser. Although she first took time for a bar fight against Boba Fett, capping off the battle with a Tornado DDT.
When Banks returned to the Star Wars universe for another episode, the fans reacted with excitement. This emotion only increased, however, after her character fought with a legendary bounty hunter. Viewers took to Twitter and proclaimed that The Mandalorian is the best show ever due to this fight between a WWE star and an iconic character. The comments continued as the season’s final episode came to a close.

If @SashaBanksWWE had only gone for The Banks Statement instead of that Tornado DDT Boba Fett would have gone down for good! #TheMandolarian

In terms of crossover coolness, Sasha Banks got to DDT Boba Fett and I once went bowling with Kevin Federline so Iโd say weโre pretty even. pic.twitter.com/i7TzN41B9v

Whoever specifically made the call that we should wrap up 2020 with Sasha Banks giving Boba Fett a Tornado DDT should be on the Nobel shortlist.

Honestly, that fight scene between #KoskaReeves and #BobaFett proves why @SashaBanksWWE was an incredible choice to play a feisty, young Mandalorian who’s not afraid of the galaxy’s most famous bounty hunter.#TheMandalorian https://t.co/gGwGWv3OV3
