“Now, I’m going to WrestleMania.”

Bianca Belair entered at number 3 in the Women’s Royal Rumble match and continued to fight her way till the very end. She secured the victory after eliminating Rhea Ripley.

When she won the match, the WWE Universe showered praise and appreciation on her. Becky Lynch was one of the Superstars who congratulated Belair for this win.

Who is Bianca Belair challenging at WrestleMania 37?

Bianca Belair is yet to announce the title she’ll go after. She has two options – Asuka for the WWE Raw Women’s Championship or Sasha Banks for the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship.

Considering The EST of WWE is already working with the blue brand, there’s a better chance WWE will book Belair in a rivalry with ‘The Boss’. Now, even if she is booked in this rivalry, the company needs to map it out in a way that it doesn’t look forced.

Since Belair’s SmackDown debut, she has expressed her desire to compete for the title. This is the perfect opportunity for her to go after the throne.

Asuka is the second option because with Lana back in the mix, and with the kind of push she has received throughout the year, she has a better chance of going after the red strap.

Additionally, if Belair was to go after Asuka, she will need to move from SmackDown to Raw. There’s a chance this move will not happen anytime soon.
