Bianca Belair Addresses Speculations About Her Alleged Heel Turn

Since the Street Profit’s heel turn saw them align with Bobby Lashley in 2023, there has been speculation surrounding Belair joining the group and turning heel for the first time since being called up to the main roster.

The former WWE Women’s Champion has been one of the top babyfaces consistently since her debut on the main roster in 2020, with a Royal Rumble win in 2021 and subsequent WrestleMania main event with Sasha Banks the highlight of her WWE career.

However, the “EST”‘s NXT run as a top heel is something fans cannot forget, with speculation of a potential heel turn a constant source of discussion within the fanbase.

Belair addressed these rumours during a discussion with Ariel Helwani on the MMA Hour, noting that her heel run in NXT got her over as a performer, but failed to help others in the company.

‘At NXT, I was a heel, but if I ever turned heel now, I want to be the right type of heel. I was the cool heel in NXT, which I don’t feel like benefitted anyone but myself. I got myself over.

‘If I’m in there with a babyface that’s not as established, it’s very hard for them. I learned when I got to the main roster how great it is to work with an amazing heel like Bayley when I first came in.‘

The WWE superstar also noted that Bayley’s heel character was a key part of her establishing herself as a babyface on the main roster, and would want to do the same for other talent if she did turn heel in the future.

‘The reason why I think I hit the ground running, as a good guy, was I had this amazing heel who was established and over. She helped introduce me to the audience and helped people get to know me and care about me.

‘That’s what I want to do if I ever turn heel, so I won’t be the heel you like and cheer for.‘

Belair is set to compete in the Women’s Royal Rumble match at WWE Royal Rumble this Saturday.
