Current WWE Superstar reminds him of Serena Williams, says Vince Russo (Exclusive)
Vince Russo recently heaped praise on a major WWE Superstar, claiming that she was quite similar to Serena Williams in certain aspects.
The star in question is Bianca Belair. Known for her snappy wrestling style with the aid of her long braid, the two-time WWE Women's champion is certainly talented. However, it is quite evident that her momentum has taken a hit in the last few months after she lost her title to IYO SKY.
Speaking on Sportskeeda's Writing with Russo, Vince Russo praised Bianca's athletic ability while comparing her to the Tennis legend Serena Williams.
"Bro when I look at this woman, I see Serena Williams. Like this is a, this is a thoroughbred racehorse, without a shadow of a doubt... Back in the day, in the mid-70s and stuff they used to have what they used to call the Superstars. And it would be like all the actors and actresses that had sitcoms on at the time would compete in all these sports. And you immediately saw who the athletes were. Bro she is head and tails the best athlete in the company." [7:56 onwards]
