Bianca Belair says women are doing big things in WWE and WNBA.
In June 2024, Bianca Belair invited Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark to participate in the 2025 WWE Royal Rumble, which would be held at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Speaking with Tim Battle on the Battleground Podcast, Bianca Belair was asked about the invite and how she thought the crossover could enhance WWE's appeal. She noted that she wanted a female crossover to happen. Belair then said that Chicago Sky star Angel Reese could come to the show as well.
“Listen, I’m always like, WWE, we’ve seen crossovers from other athletes, from different influencers, and I’m waiting for that female crossover to happen. Caitlyn Clark, she’s doing big things, WNBA, they’re doing big things, women over there, she’s a GOAT over there, women are doing big things over in WWE, so why not invite the GOAT over to WWE, where women are doing big things over here? So I wanted to invite Caitlyn Clark, like, ‘Come over to WWE, come join the Royal Rumble.’ That’s what’s exciting about the Royal Rumble. You never know who can show up. The possibilities are endless when it comes to Royal Rumble, so I’m like, ‘Caitlyn Clark, come on over. You can bring Angel Reese with you too.’ The women are doing big things in WWE, the women are doing big things in WNBA, so why not let both of the worlds collide, let both of the worlds meet?" Belair said.
As of this writing, there is no word on if or when Caitlin Clark or Angel Reese will cross over to WWE.
Belair and Naomi are set to defend the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship on the January 27th episode of WWE Raw. More information is available here.
