What Happened to Bianca Belair?

You may have asked, "Where is Bianca Belair?" The EST has been sidelined since suffering a finger injury during her triple-threat match against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY at WrestleMania 41 this past April.

The injury has not only kept Belair out of action but also led to her and Jade Cargill vacating the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles. In Belair’s absence, Cargill has shifted to singles competition and is set to challenge Tiffany Stratton for the WWE Women’s Championship at SummerSlam.
