The EST Bianca Belair Tops BW 500 List

Fans want to see more performers who reflect their diverse ethnicities, thus representation in professional wrestling is still a hot topic. The BW500 offers an opportunity for fans to become acquainted with lesser-known wrestlers, in addition to the industry’s top names. Fans will immediately know the names at the top of the list, including WWE’s EST, Bianca Belair, who is ranked number one.

As WWE Raw Women’s Champion, Bianca Belair is experiencing a strong run. Since April, when she reclaimed the title at WrestleMania 38, she has held this title for 163 days. She has successfully defended her title against opponents like Sonya Deville, Carmella, Asuka, and most recently Becky Lynch at SummerSlam.
