A job as a pro wrestler entails frequent traveling. This is because wrestling events take place across the country, to make it accessible for fans of every state to have a chance at enjoying a live show. While the WWE follows a roster, thus making it easier for wrestlers to devote their time to their brand, it still does not take away the air miles they cover every week.
While these travels can be fun at times, they can also be dangerous. Recently, Bianca Belair shared one of her experiences which is likely to connect with many fans.

The former RAW Women’s Champion is part of the SmackDown roster. The upcoming event of the blue brand will take place at the Cajundome in Lafayette, Louisiana. Though it’s not confirmed, it looked like the 34-year-old was traveling to the city for the event.
The EST of WWE shared a clip on her Instagram story which showed the airplane facing turbulent weather. Though the short clip didn’t have audio, the visuals were enough to send shivers down the spine of those watching. And if anyone has experienced something similar, they would know the emotions a person goes through during such a time.
Just a few days ago, WWE superstar and current World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Rollins, got stuck and couldn’t make it to an event due to the rains.
On the other hand, Belair wouldn’t let her recent scare hamper her spirits, as she will be needing them against her fight to regain the lost title. Last Friday, she indicated the same and threatened another former champion.
Who will Bianca Belair support on June 30?
Come June 30th, Belair will be at ringside, as promised, during the bout between Asuka and Charlotte Flair. The Empress of Tomorrow took the RAW Women’s Championship belt from her in Saudi Arabia at Night of Champions.
Just as WWE presented the champion with a new belt, Flair, a 14-time world champion made her comeback and challenged Asuka. The match will take place on the 30th June episode of SmackDown. Interestingly, WWE has renamed the titles and they do not carry the name RAW or SmackDown anymore.

That still wasn’t a good enough reason for the former RAW Women’s Champion to stop lashing out at Flair. On the last episode of SmackDown, Belair called out Flair for her title match and said the former will be at ringside to challenge the winner.
This is an opportunity for Charlotte Flair to win her 15th title and inch closer to the record by beating Asuka. While a win over Charlotte will lend further credibility to Asuka’s title run. Belair is likely to support Flair, with whom she got into some serious promo battles at NXT. If she manages to go over Charlotte, provided The Queen defeats Asuka, it’ll elevate Belair’s stature. For that, fans will have to wait for the future and hope the WWE creative thinks the same.
