Bianca Belair On Bayley: She’s A Locker Room Leader, She’s A Legend In The Making

After defeating Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women’s Championship at WrestleMania, Bianca Belair found herself locked into a feud with Bayley for several months.

Now heading into SummerSlam, Bianca Belair once again finds herself standing across the ring from Sasha Banks, but feels her recent rivalry with Bayley has better prepared her for this rematch.

Bianca Belair was a recent guest on Out of Character with Ryan Satin to discuss all things WWE. When the subject of Bayley came up, the SmackDown Women’s Champion had nothing but high praise for her:

“Bayley is so talented. Bianca Belair said. “The amazing thing about Bayley is that she’s so talented at what she does, that she makes it look so easy that sometimes I feel like she doesn’t get the credit that she deserves because she just makes it look so easy. I have learned so much from Bayley, even outside of the ring, just watching how Bayley adapts to things, how she handles things, her creativity, her mind, her persona, her charisma, her wrestling skills, and ability.

“Everything about Bayley. She’s a locker room leader. She’s a legend in the making. I feel like I learned so much from Bayley, especially at Hell in a Cell. I feel like a new side of Bianca Belair came out. I wear this long braid, and that’s the first thing people want to do is touch my braid. I’m like, you know what? I got to give a reason for people not to touch my braid, and she helped me showcase what happens when you touch my hair. You’re never going to win that war!

“She also challenged me mentally, which – everyone knows I’m ‘The EST of WWE,’ right? Physically, I’m strong, I’m fast, I’m tough, I’m rough. Even if you look at my back story, everybody knows that mentally, that’s the part that used to always get me. That’s the part that was my struggle, and she really tried to get to me mentally. She really helped me grow mentally as a competitor, which everyone knows, that’s like the biggest part of who you’re competing. If you’re not there here, then you’re not going to be able to succeed.

“So, working with Bayley really grew me mentally, which is going to help me even more when I get in the ring with Sasha Banks. Bayley was Sasha’s right-hand man. So just getting in there and getting stronger and faster and better against Bayley, that’s only going to help me even more against Sasha.”
