Bianca Belair picked up the win over IYO SKY on the latest WWE Raw, but she didn’t walk away without a scratch to account for it.
2022 has been busy for Bianca Belair. Not only has ‘The EST of WWE’ competed on the majority of WWE’s premium live events, all but two of which were as the Raw Women’s Championship champion or challenger, but she’s wrestled on 21 out of the 39 televised Raws of the year. That’s an impressive feat.
The latest of those Raw encounters came on the red brand’s 26 September broadcast, with the reigning Raw Women’s Champion successfully defeating Damage CTRL’s IYO SKY. The win didn’t come without risk, though, as a busted lip was displayed via Twitter in the aftermath.
Had to get EXTREME with @Iyo_SkyWWE tonight, since @itsBayleyWWE always has one of her birds do HER work.#WWERaw #ExtremeRulespic.twitter.com/huse4VaARK

Bianca Belair’s 18-minute clash with ‘The Genius of the Sky’ was the latest match to build towards her Extreme Rules showdown with Bayley. ‘The Role Model’ will challenge for the red brand’s Women’s Championship in a Ladder match during the 8 October premium live event.
A successful graduate of the WWE Performance Center, Belair is heralded as one of the PC’s greatest assets. She’s remained a prominent fixture on WWE’s main roster since being called up at WrestleMania 36, achieving one reign as SmackDown Women’s Champion and a Royal Rumble victory alongside her current championship success.
