Former WWE Women’s World Champion Bianca Belair has been out of action since suffering a fractured finger at WrestleMania 41, but she has a message for her fans: “I’ll be back soon.” In a new interview, “The EST of WWE” thanked her supporters for their love and patience during her recovery and promised that she will “show up and show out” upon her return.
Belair has not wrestled since the second night of WrestleMania 41, where she competed in a triple threat match for the WWE Women’s World Championship against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY. It was during that encounter that she suffered the finger injury that has kept her on the sidelines for the past five months. Her only on-screen appearance since then was as the special guest referee for the No Holds Barred match between Jade Cargill and Naomi at the Evolution premium live event in July.
In a new interview with Adrian Hernandez, Belair was asked to give a message to her fans. “I just wanna say to all my fans, thank you for all the love, all the support. I hear you, I see you all online when you’re asking when I’m coming back, and that you miss me,” she said. “All I can say is be ready, stay tuned. The EST always comes through and shows up and shows out, so I’ll be back soon.”
The women’s division has undergone some significant changes in her absence. Her former tag team partner, Naomi, won the Women’s World Championship at Evolution, only to have to relinquish it a few weeks later due to her pregnancy. A new champion will be crowned at the upcoming Wrestlepalooza premium live event when IYO SKY takes on Stephanie Vaquer.
Belair’s return will add another top-tier talent to an already stacked Raw women’s division. Check out the full interview below.
