Bianca Belair stands as a key figure in the thriving WWE Women’s Division, boasting a roster filled with talents like Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley, Bayley, Iyo Sky, and others.
Despite the division’s formidable lineup, Belair acknowledges that there’s always room for improvement. Recent discussions hint at a potential boost to the division, with Belair confirming talks with the former 10-time champion, Sasha Banks, now known as Mercedes Mone.
Sasha Banks had a successful tenure with WWE before parting ways on less than favorable terms in 2022.
In a recent interview on the Gorilla Position podcast, Bianca Belair expressed her openness to Banks making a return to WWE.
Belair emphasized her desire for Banks to pursue what is best for her and recalled their momentous WrestleMania 37 encounter, hoping for the possibility of further collaboration.
“I’ve had this conversation with her. I don’t know what she wants or what she wants to do. I just want what’s best for her and what she wants to do with her. I’m no one to tell someone what they should do… So, the fact that you know it was all halted at that point, you know, I would love for her to pick back up one day and take off,” shared Belair [18:06-18:54].
The referenced WrestleMania moment unfolded at WrestleMania 37, where Bianca Belair, fresh from winning the Royal Rumble, challenged Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women’s Championship.
Beyond the title change, the match made history as the first time African-American superstars headlined a WrestleMania.

While rumors suggest Banks may be headed to AEW, the unpredictable nature of the wrestling business leaves the door open for a potential WWE return in the future.
Looking ahead, Bianca Belair is determined to extend her WrestleMania “Streak.” Having already participated in three WrestleMania events undefeated, she aspires to carve her own legacy, akin to The Undertaker’s iconic streak.
To surpass The Deadman, Belair needs to secure victories in her next 19 WrestleMania matches, a challenge she seems poised to embrace given her stellar caliber.
