Ever since Bianca Belair was moved up to the WWE main roster as part of the SmackDown brand, she has, without a shadow of a doubt, proven herself as a main event Star. Belair became the SmackDown Women's Champion at WrestleMania 37 Night One, when she defeated Sasha Banks. Bianca Belair then successfully defended her SmackDown Women's Title against Bayley at WrestleMania Backlash and Hell in a Cell.
Belair recently appeared on WWE's The Bump, where she spoke about being in the ring with the best and competing on the highest level. Bianca also spoke about still having to continuously prove herself as well as how she gains more experience and confidence to become a better competitor on a daily basis.
Bianca Belair said:
“I think I’ve added experience to myself. When people talk about me or see me, they say, ‘Oh, she’s a rookie, and she didn’t have any experience.’ This year, I’ve gained more experience.” “I’ve been in the ring with the best. You know, I pinned Bayley right before Royal Rumble. I can’t lie if I can’t say that didn’t give me more momentum and that it didn’t push me to become a better competitor. I’ve gotten in the ring with Sasha Banks on the highest level at WrestleMania in the main event.”
“To get in the ring with these women, I know being an athlete my whole life, you have to compete with the best, and that’s what I’ve been doing all year long. Anytime I get the opportunity, I don’t run from it… I’ve added experience to the list. I’ve been getting in the ring with the best, and I’ve been beating the best.”
Belair then talked about being excited about the fans returning and how she wants to experience being the SmackDown Women's Champion in front of the fans.
Bianca Belair said:
“I am so excited about the fans!” “It’s not said enough that the fans put smiles on our faces. I’m especially excited because I haven’t experienced fans being on SmackDown. Now, I’m the SmackDown Women’s Champion, and I get to be in front of fans. I can’t wait to experience the road and get back out there in front of the fans.”
Belair then talked about being a Women's Champion with her two closest friends Rhea Ripley and Raquel González and how amazing it is to share this moment with them and to accomplish their goals.
Bianca Belair said:
“Those are my girls! Those have been my girls since NXT. We started around the same time. It’s amazing to see that we’re all sharing this amazing moment.” “The amazing thing that I love about our bond is that we push each other, and we all strive to accomplish our goals. We push each other without tearing each other down. We’ve done that the whole time since NXT.”
“It’s really cool that we’re all champions now. We talked for about 20 minutes backstage about it – our journeys and how happy we are for each other. We joke about who’s going to lose it first. We said we’re kind of like the new generation of women that are coming through for women’s wrestling. We have to hold it down, so that’s our mission, and that’s our goal.”
