Bianca Belair Humbled on Being Ranked #1 Female Superstar of 2021

Published 10/26/2021, 10:10 AM EDT

The ‘EST of WWE’ Bianca Belair has been on a dream run in WWE. She kicked off the year winning the Royal Rumble, and then went on to main event WrestleMania 37. Not just main event, but she also won the WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion defeating Sasha Banks.

All of these accolades have made her the #1 ranked female wrestler in the Pro Wrestling Illustrated rankings.

Belair lost her SmackDown title in a controversial manner when Becky Lynch defeated her in under 30 seconds. However, this barely sidelined Belair as she created history when she became part of the first-ever women’s championship at the WWE Crown Jewel PPV in Saudi Arabia.

The former SmackDown Women’s Champion recently joined Mike Jones on DC101. During the appearance, Bianca commented on being the number 1 wrestler in the PWI 500 rankings.

She said, “It’s a huge honor. It’s just a lot of validation and I love the validation and recognition that I’m getting. But, all I can say is that I’m number one this year, but the grind will never stop, it will continue.”

Belair continued, “It’s an amazing journey since 2016 to now. It’s crazy to think it’s only been five years, but to be considered the number one wrestler in the world right now, it’s just an amazing representation. All that I can say is that I’m blessed and going to continue to grind.”

Although, several top stars like Becky Lynch have called her a rookie, she definitely isn’t one. In fact, the WWE Universe has only seen the tip of the iceberg.
