Bianca Belair is preparing for a WrestleMania battle against IYO SKY for the Women’s World Title. Needless to say, she will have to endure a lot of pain in order to win the championship. However, before the match, the EST of WWE faced a different kind of challenge as she removed a tattoo she got during her college days.

The former Women’s Champion shared an Instagram story of her getting a tattoo removed from her midsection. Bianca Belair admitted that the removal process was harder and more painful than getting the tattoo itself. She revealed that the tattoo featured cupcakes and stars, which she never liked. She also expressed regret over getting it and blamed her college-day immaturity.

The last few weeks have been challenging for Belair. The 35-year-old star was heartbroken when her tag team partner, Jade Cargill, returned and brutally attacked Naomi at Elimination Chamber. However, moments later, her pain turned to joy as she defeated five other women inside the unforgiving structure to win the match. Now, she is set to challenge SKY for the title at WrestleMania.

Belair has faced another problem in her title chase—Rhea Ripley, who keeps trying to involve herself in the match. On the March 10th episode of Raw, all three women had a tense altercation, ending with the champion standing tall after slapping both Ripley and Belair for disrespecting her. The tension grew further during the contract signing between the champion and the challenger.

Just when the WWE Universe thought everything was going smoothly, The Eradicator appeared, laid out both women, and signed the contract. Raw GM Adam Pearce was furious and tried to reason with her, but another brawl broke out between the three. If Mami joins the match, SKY could lose the title without being pinned. The question remains—who will emerge as the Women’s World Champion at WrestleMania?

Bianca Belair shares awkward moment with Iyo Sky after their physical altercation on Raw

Despite their troubled past, Bianca Belair and IYO SKY managed to coexist in last year’s WarGames at Survivor Series. However, cracks are beginning to show, especially after Belair became the No. 1 contender for the title. Following a physical altercation with the champion and Rhea Ripley, the 35-year-old shared an awkward encounter with The Genius of the Sky after this week’s Raw.

The former Women’s Champion shared a TikTok highlighting her current situation with the champion. The video showed several female stars, including SKY, her Damage CTRL partner Dakota Kai, and Lyra Valkyria, enjoying a meal. Moments later, Belair entered and sat near SKY’s table. She described the situation as awkward, finding it hard to sit next to her WrestleMania opponent.

Fans found the video hilarious and loved the look SKY gave Belair. However, some fans criticized the clip, noting that the superstars were breaking kayfabe. Despite their heated feud on the road to WrestleMania, the WWE Universe enjoyed this lighthearted moment between the two.

Bianca Belair has a chance to extend her WrestleMania undefeated streak

Bianca Belair has quickly proven herself as one of the greatest women’s wrestlers in WWE history. A major factor in her success is her impressive record at WWE’s biggest event, WrestleMania. The 35-year-old is one of the few women to headline the event, highlighting her rapid rise since debuting on the main roster.

Belair debuted at WrestleMania 37 in 2021, defeating Sasha Banks to win the SmackDown Women’s Title—her first title on the main roster. A year later at WrestleMania 38, she avenged her SummerSlam loss by defeating Becky Lynch for the Raw Women’s Title.

At WrestleMania 39, Belair defeated Asuka to retain her Raw Women’s Title in a thrilling match. The following year was the only WrestleMania where she wasn’t a champion. She teamed up with Jade Cargill and Naomi to defeat Damage CTRL in an exciting six-woman tag match. It will be interesting to see if Belair can extend her record to five wins at WrestleMania 41, but to do that, she must overcome two of the most talented wrestlers on the roster.
