Former WWE Champion says he's proud of Bianca Belair and other Black superstars
Former WWE Champion Big E recently commented on the success of fellow Black superstars in the company, such as the current RAW Women's Champion, Bianca Belair.
The EST of WWE has had a great year as she won the Women's Elimination Chamber match, dethroned Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38, overcame Bayley and Damage CTRL, and was part of the winning team at Survivor Series: WarGames. She's one of the top female superstars in the company and has accomplished a lot in her short career on the main roster.
Speaking to These Urban Times, Big E heaped praise on Bianca Belair, stating that she is killing it. The former WWE Champion also called her one of the "very biggest stars" in the industry.
"I'm so proud of just the amount of [Black] talent across the board. You look at one of the very biggest stars in our industry, that's Bianca [Belair]. She's been absolutely killing it, not just in the ring, but outside of it. Just from seeing the way that little girls from all backgrounds and colors, the way they connect with her is so cool."
The topic of Belair's success in WWE also brought up other stars, such as The Street Profits and Bobby Lashley.
"Her husband Montez [Ford], his partner [Angelo] Dawkins, Bobby Lashley obviously. I don't know what this man is made of, but I think he's aging backwards," said Big E. [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
