Bianca Belair Royal Rumble

Bianca Belair opens up on working with Sasha Banks and Bayley. The EST of WWE is steadily rising in the promotion and looks like the next big thing.

For all the talk about the Women’s revolution. The WWE have focussed on a very limited number of women. Anyone outside of the 4-horsewomen and Asuka have found it hard to get the WWE’s attention. One women however, seems to be bucking the trend and appears to be on her way up with a rocket strapped to her back.

Bianca Belair may have had a tough time in the beginning, it seems though, that the WWE see value in her and have been giving her the star treatment.

Belair and Bayley may hate each other’s guts on television. Off it, however, the EST of WWE believes that Bayley, along with Sasha Banks, are vital to the WWE. According to her, they elevate and make stars out of people who come in contact with them.

“Bayley and Sasha are more than just vital to the women’s division, they’re vital to WWE,” Belair told Sports Illustrated. “They’ve done so many monumental things, starting in NXT. They set the bar at TakeOver, then they set the bar again on Raw, SmackDown and on pay-per-view. That Hell in a Cell match was amazing. They continually set the bar in wrestling, and I’m excited to be in the same locker room as both of them.

“Sasha sets the standard. She’s the champion. Bayley is so versatile. Look at the way she went from protagonist to antagonist. She always comes up with something new, and she has the ability to make people around her stars, too. I am looking forward to working with Bayley.”

“They don’t just bring themselves to the table, they also pull up seats for the other women, too,” Belair continued. “They don’t just elevate themselves, they elevate every single person they come into contact with. That’s why I want to be in the ring with Bayley. That’s why I want to get in the ring with Sasha. If I can get into the ring with people of that caliber, I’m only going to get better.”

It has long been rumored that Belair is being groomed for a program with Sasha Banks in the future, Many believe that she will win the Rumble setting up her eventual match with the SmackDown Women’s Champion. However, there is a section of fans who want to see Bayley win so they can get a Wrestlemania rematch.
