AceShowbiz - This is not a good first impression for WWE star Sasha Bank. The star was initially set to make her debut on "The Wendy Williams Show" on Tuesday morning, April 9, but canceled her appearance just hours before the taping, making everyone on the talk show furious.
The 27-year-old took to Twitter to announce that she pulled out of her scheduled gig on "The Wendy Williams" due to "personal reasons." She went on adding, "Sorry to everyone who was looking forward to it. Hopefully the opportunity will be there again later. #IfYouOnlyKnew."

But apparently, there won't be another time for the WWE star. A source reveals that her canceling the appearance at last minute left the production staff "fuming" so much that "she won't be booked again."
The insider continues telling Page Six, "She didn't give a real reason for canceling, and she did it only hours before the show tapes, so production was left scrambling to fill her spot." In order to fill the void that Sasha left, "Wendy ended up doing an extra segment of Hot Topics instead."
Although Sasha didn't specify the reason of her cancellation, fans speculated that it might be related to her loss on Sunday night, April 7. She and wrestler Bayley, known as The Boss 'n' Hug Connection, had the Women's Tag Team Titles taken away from them at WrestleMania 35 after a short reign.
Sasha concerned her fans after sending a cryptic message on Twitter on Monday. "There is something about the way life happens today that makes it hard to look ahead. There are things that make it difficult to laugh; difficult to live the way you want. There are things that make it almost impossible to trust where you are, or to believe in where you want to be," she tweeted. "You look around and life is happening way too fast. Sometimes it feels like the moments are gone. Everything happens all at once and right away. We're marching towards a destiny we cannot understand, towards the kingdom of convenient."

"Then one day you look up and you can't find the meaning," she continued. "Your crisis of purpose and passion is acting up, but they tell you that that's suppose [sic] to be normal. Well... I don't want normal, I want magic; cause that's the place that feels like home to me. That's the place where I remember what dreams look like, where meaning is effortless, and purpose is simple. That's the place where love still matters. I want that feeling of coming home again. I want to feel like myself... I want that magic."
