Bianca Belair Says WWE Crown Jewel Gear Split Before She Made Her Entrance, Quickly Restitched It

Bianca Belair is known for making her own gear, and she had some last minute adjustments for WWE Crown Jewel. 

Belair didn’t have much free time to put her gear together for WWE Crown Jewel as she’s been busy being WWE Raw Women’s Champion, but managed to whip up an outfit during the long travel. The gear was done, when disaster nearly struck. 

“I’m always scared, just because I do make it myself,” Bianca said in an interview with The MegaCast when discussing her gear. “I’m always paranoid, I’m always double-stitching everything. I didn’t have time to make my gear because I wasn’t home at all, and I had to make it on the plane, the bus, the hotel, the locker room. Ironically, I put it on and it split right down the middle. I had to re-stitch it right before I went out. I always wear clothes underneath because I’m so paranoid.”

Belair noted that she keeps all the gear she makes as she can’t imagine parting with it. 

Belair took on Bayley in a Last Woman Standing match at WWE Crown Jewel and she was proud to make more history for women in Saudi Arabia. 

“It was so much fun. For one, it was an honor to be able to have a Last Woman Standing match in Saudi Arabia. As women, to be able to have that type of match. You watch a lot of other Last Man Standing matches and they typically all fall within a certain kind of guideline. It was really cool to go out there and be creative and bring something to the table that’s different and makes it stand out. We also got to drive golf carts in Saudi Arabia, which we’re always grateful to be part of change when it comes to women and knowing that women can now drive in Saudi Arabia. ‘We want to drive here and showcase that and celebrate that.’ We got to do a lot of cool things. It was amazing,” she said.

Belair was victorious in the Last Woman Standing match, successfully defending her Raw Women’s Championship against Bayley. 

Belair is set to compete in WarGames at WWE Survivor Series. Fans can check out the lineup for the match by clicking here.
