Bianca Belair is a real deal. The female WWE champion has been having a pretty successful career. Even though the pro wrestler is pretty formal and professional with her work, she recently dropped a few ‘out of the character’ thoughts. For example, she mentioned how she adores her all-time rival, Bayley. In a podcast with Ryan Satin, Belair talked about several topics. One of them was how she finds her rival to be one of the best characters among all the female WWE wrestlers. In the same podcast, she also broke her character for the second time to explain that she has felt the curse of pro-wrestling. While discussing the mental toll that the sports-entertainment world can have on the wrestlers, she also talked about how she was helped by a WWE legend to escape it.
One’s headspace can be a pretty scary place to be if left alone. That is exactly what happened with Belair. However, according to her claim, she doesn’t seem to be the only pro wrestler who feels this way. After mentioning the real issue she faced, she also mentioned how she was guided by the WWE icon, John Cena.

While talking about how playing a certain character 24/7 in WWE can mess up your mind, Belair started sharing her own experience.
