Bianca Belair

Profile Overview

Bianca Nicole Crawford (née Blair; born April 9, 1989) is an American professional wrestler and fitness and figure competitor. As of April 2016, she is signed to WWE, where she performs on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Bianca Belair. Belair is one of two women to win at a WrestleMania main event and her 420-day reign as Raw Women's Champion stands as the longest in the championship's history.
Crawford made her professional wrestling debut in 2016 for WWE's developmental brand NXT, competing for the NXT Women's Championship on multiple occasions. After being drafted to SmackDown, she won the 2021 Women's Royal Rumble match, becoming the second African American after The Rock to win a Royal Rumble match. She successfully challenged for the SmackDown Women's Championship against Sasha Banks in the main event of WrestleMania 37 – Night 1, which marked the second time women main-evented WrestleMania, as well as the first time two African-Americans main-evented WWE's flagship event. In 2021, she was ranked No. 1 of the top 150 female wrestlers by Pro Wrestling Illustrated (PWI).
In 2023, she became the longest-reigning Raw Women's Champion with her reign of 420 days. This would also be the longest reign of any WWE women's championship since 2006, with WWE promoting her as the longest-reigning women's champion of the modern era. This reign also broke a couple of other records within WWE, including the longest-reigning African-American world champion (male or female) and the longest-reigning African-American for any singles championship. After winning the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship with Jade Cargill in May 2024, she became the ninth WWE Women's Triple Crown Champion.
