The WWE Raw Women's Champion has her first big title defence in sight.
Apr 12, 2022
Bianca Belair's first challenger as WWE Raw Women's Champion has been revealed.
Belair defeated Becky Lynch to win the gold on night one of WrestleMania 38. On last night's Raw, following a routine victory over Queen Zelina, Bianca was presented with an open contract by Sonya Deville. Belair signed the contract, but was then attacked by Deville who also signed it, before holding up the title belt.
Although unconfirmed at the time of writing, it seems fairly likely that the match will take place at WrestleMania Backlash on May 8 in Providence, Rhode Island. Other matches slated for the card include Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey in an I Quit match, a unification clash between the Raw and SmackDown Tag Team Champions (RKBro and The Usos), and a rematch between Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
Becky Lynch hasn't appeared on Raw since losing the title to Belair, although she did feature as a guest on Logan Paul's IMPAULSIVE podcast following 'Mania weekend.
Bianca's victory at WrestleMania 38 was her second consecutive title win at WWE's biggest annual event, having defeated Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 37 night one.
