Caitlin Clark has set the world on fire, becoming one of the most discussed athletes over the last year with her rise in women’s basketball, and has caught the eye of Bianca Belair.
Earlier this week, it was announced by WWE and the Indiana Sports Corp. that they had agreed to a deal that will see the 2025 Royal Rumble emanate from Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, on February 1st, in addition to future two-night WrestleMania and two-night SummerSlam events.
While speaking with Matt Aguilar of ComicBook Nation, Belair invited the WNBA Indiana Fever guard to work in the 2025 women’s Royal Rumble match.
Belair said, “It’s so funny because everybody’s already asking that (Clark being at one of the shows mentioned above). Even before the press conference, they’re bringing up Caitlin Clark. Listen, I love what’s happening with the WNBA. I love that women are getting more spotlight and more attention. I’ve always said, you know, we don’t need to do anything different. We just need the opportunities, we need the media coverage, and the WNBA is doing that. I feel like WWE, we’ve done a lot of unprecedented things when it comes to women, whether it’s women main eventing WrestleManias, main eventing on a weekly basis at Raws, SmackDowns or PLEs. So, it would be really cool for the two worlds to combine and have an even bigger impact for women, so Caitlin Clark, if you’re watching, come on. Come in the Royal Rumble. You can be one of the 30 participants. That’s what’s exciting about the Royal Rumble, right? You never know what’s gonna happen. It could be the past, the present, the future, or just someone that you don’t expect, so you might see Caitlin Clark, 2025 Royal Rumble right here in Indianapolis.”
Belair and Jade Cargill lost the Women’s Tag Team Championships at Clash at the Castle to Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn.
