Bianca Belair Begins Light Training In Preparation For WWE Return

There is a new twist in the ongoing saga of Bianca Belair's absence from WWE TV.

Belair has been out of action for almost a year with a broken finger, but BodySlam has reported the former WWE Women's Champion has begun light training as she prepares for her return to the squared circle. How long Bianca Belair will continue to be on the shelf is unknown.

Bianca Belair suffered a broken finger during her Triple Threat match against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY over the Women's World Championship at WrestleMania 41 in April 2025. Belair sustained the broken finger after Rhea Ripley landed on her hand, but the injury was worse than initially believed as Belair suffered a broken knuckle.

Belair initially made sporadic appearances on WWE TV while injured, which included her serving as the special guest referee for the Street Fight between Jade Cargill and Naomi at Evolution in July 2025. She hasn't been back on TV in several months, however.

Belair looked to finally be on the road to recovery in early February after she announced that she had undergone surgery on her finger.
