Bianca Belair Becomes The Longest-Reigning Black Singles Champion In WWE History

Bianca Belair comments on making history.

Having held the WWE Raw Women’s Championship for 344 days, Bianca Belair has surpassed MVP’s United States Championship reign and is now the longest-reigning black singles champion in WWE history.

Bianca commented on this history-making mark while speaking on The Whole Story Podcast, making it clear that she’s very proud of what she’s been able to accomplish in such a short span of time

“It means everything to me. I feel like I’m still fairly new to this. I know I’ve had a lot of success very quickly, but I’ve only been on the main roster for, [I’m] going on my third year. So to know that I’m currently the longest-reigning black champion in WWE history, it’s something that’s really hard to put into words. It’s an honor, it makes me feel like I’m doing something right, and it really puts, not pressure but significance on how big this moment is, and that it’s not just about me. I think that’s what I love about it the most is that I feel like it’s not just about me. It adds a why to what I’m doing. It’s representation, it’s inspiring others,” Belair said.

Bianca will reach the one-year mark with the championship at WrestleMania 39 where she will defend the title against Asuka.
