Gina Carano is about as much of an actor as I am, which is to say not very much. She’s very “stiff” in her role on the show, to the point of laughable at times. In Chapter 7, the Mando recruits her for the attack on Neverro, she says no. Then, he appeals to her by mentioning an Imperial Warlord. Her “I’m In” response is so awkward and weird that I laugh every time and think to myself, “How many takes did they do before finally saying ‘That’s a wrap!’”?
It was epically bad acting. I suppose Sasha Banks could be worse but that would require a mighty effort, IMO.

It's all about the role, IMO. Your description of Gina Carano I agree with, but it fit the role I felt. Your description could also be used for Keanu Reeves, and yet I still love John Wick (the first one anyway).
Sabine is not a wooden character to me, so I hope whoever portrays her is not a wooden actor. I know nothing about Sasha Banks or wrestling and don't plan to find out. I guess I'll find out when the show drops.
