Bianca Belair has had quite a tough few weeks in WWE. First, she and her tag team partner, Jade Cargill lost their tag team titles in Scotland, and now she has also failed to qualify for the MITB ladder match. After suffering back-to-back losses, The EST of WWE revealed the probable reason for her losses on social media.

The former Women’s Tag Team Champion took to X and expressed disappointment with her recent performances in WWE. She revealed that being jet-lagged was the reason for her back-to-back losses at Clash at the Castle and on SmackDown. That could very well be true, as the wrestler returned from Scotland and then performed in Chicago, Illinois.

The duo of Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill went in as the champions and favorites to win the match in Scotland. However, the Scottish crowd was in for a surprise as Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn snatched the titles from them in their hometown. The dominance of the duo, which started at Backlash in France, ended in just 42 days.

Meanwhile, she wrestled Chelsea Green and Mia Yim in a Triple Threat match to earn a spot in the MITB ladder match. Although she dominated the scene most of the match, The Lunatic Lush grabbed the opportunity with both hands and pinned Michin. After a disappointing Queen of the Ring campaign, this was another major setback in her singles career.

Bayley takes a shot at Bianca Belair for making an excuse for losing a match

After The EST of WWE shared the post about having jet lag, Bayley didn’t miss the chance to take a dig at her. The current WWE Women’s Champion’s harsh words might have hurt her, leading to a heated exchange between the two stars.

Bayley took to X and commented on her post, indirectly suggesting that it was just an excuse for losing a match. She stated that if jetlag was the reason for her consecutive losses, then she was jetlagged last year. For those unaware, The Role Model lost the third-most matches in 2023, just behind Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci, with 62.

If that’s da reason for your losses then I was jet lagged all of last year

On the contrary, 2024 has been great for Bayley as she became the WWE Women’s Champion at WrestleMania XL. In the 21 matches she has competed in this year, she has lost only 2, which is quite impressive. Currently, she has no challenger for Money in the Bank, but Queen of the Ring winner Nia Jax awaits her at SummerSlam.
