Wwe Stars Stand United Against Racist Abuse Towards Bianca Belair

Wrestling stars have united to condemn sickening abuse aimed at WWE Superstar Bianca Belair online. The former Raw Women’s Champion was subjected to a horrendous comment on social media earlier this week as the company promoted the release of its new WWE 2K24 video game. Belair is among the cover stars for the newest version of the series, and the official WWE Games Instagram account carried a post picturing her alongside fellow stars Rhea Ripley and John Cena.

One disturbing comment left in reply to the post intimated that Belair’s inclusion in the promotional shot was based only on the color of her skin, while others sickeningly appeared to echo the sentiment. The author of the comment was roundly chastised by fellow posters and stars alike after it began to circulate, many of the industry’s top names speaking out in support of the phenomenally talented ‘EST of WWE.’ Ripley, the current Women’s World Champion, blasted the comment in an X post, stating: “EST ain’t just a nickname… @BiancaBelairWWE is a history maker, a trailblazer, and one of the nicest humans that you would have the privilege to ever meet.

Furious fellow co-star Zelina Vega added: “Bianca is one of the best this business and WORLD has ever seen. When I think of a hard worker, stand out, path paver, and someone who is genuinely a proud representation of her culture, it’s Bianca. She deserves everything she’s gotten and MORE. She EARNED the name EST. Bianca is one of the best this business and WORLD has ever seen. When I think of a hard worker, stand out, path paver, and someone who is genuinely a proud representation of her culture, it’s Bianca. She deserves everything she’s gotten and MORE. She EARNED the name EST.

The “fans” that took part in the blatant disrespect and hate towards her and other black men and women should be ashamed and embarrassed. It’s disgusting. But your hate will never EVER dim their shine. We love you B. You continue to be an inspiration to all of us. Legendary WWE superstar John Cena goes viral as fans react to a bizarre OnlyFans pie video. Katana Chance, who wrestles on WWE’s Raw show, echoed those views, saying: “[Bianca] is a huge inspiration and has been good to me since the day I walked into the performance center.

Thank you for all that you continue to do to shatter glass ceilings. A true legend in and out of the ring.” Arguably one of WWE’s finest ‘home grown’ Superstars, the former CrossFit sensation Belair is a product of the company’s Performance Center training facility. Debuting in NXT after her rapid progress through the ranks, the gifted athlete quickly made progress on to the ‘main roster.’ There she was voted Women of the Year by Pro Wrestling Illustrated in 2022, in addition to her championship reigns – one of which stretched to over 400 days – and a victory in the 2021 Royal Rumble match.

That victory took her to the main event of WrestleMania 38’s first night, where she defeated Rhea Ripley to claim what was then billed as the Raw Women’s title.
