The WWE locker room and fans alike are taking to their social media in defense of Bianca Belair.
Based on the state the world continues to be in, Belair has received some racist remarks in the comment section of a WWE Game account post.
A simple post below to show the individuals on the upcoming WWE 2K24 has sparked horrible comments on race and why Belair doesn’t belong with Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley. And to be clear, this goes beyond her talent and just not liking her as a wrestler. The post can be seen below.
This particular screenshot shows a comment saying that Belair is only on the cover because “guess gotta have a black.” Outside of this, there are tons of comments saying only Ripley and Rhodes deserve to be there with no explanation. But we know the explanation!!
Several WWE Superstars are speaking out. Belair’s cover partner Rhea Ripley had the following to say.
EST ain’t just a nickname… @BiancaBelairWWE is a history maker, a trailblazer, and one of the nicest humans that you would have the privilege to ever meet.
Y’all just mad that she’s better than you ????? #EST
You can see more below. Fuck y’all racists!
Anybody hating on Bianca can suck my whole butt.

You Dusties make me sick.
The black women in this industry face a regular barrage of racism & misogyny from “fans.” And have for far too long. You cannot diminish their light. You cannot erase their contributions to this industry.
— Ettore “Big E” Ewen (@WWEBigE) March 7, 2024. @BiancaBelairWWE is a huge inspiration and has been good to me since the day I walked into the performance center. Thank you for all that you continue to do to shatter glass ceilings. A true legend in and out of the ring. ????
— Kacy Catanzaro (@Katana_WWE) March 7, 2024Bianca is one of the best this business and WORLD has ever seen. When I think of a hard worker, stand out, path paver, and someone who is genuinely a proud representation of her culture, it’s Bianca. She deserves everything she’s gotten and MORE. She EARNED the name EST.

The “fans” that took part in the blatant disrespect and hate towards her and other black men and women should be ashamed and embarrassed. It’s disgusting. But your hate will never EVER dim their shine. We love you B. You continue to be an inspiration to all of us.
