The EST’s Journey: From Designing Gear to Pioneering a New Era in Women’s Wrestling
Bianca Belair, known as the EST of WWE, has always been driven to be the best. From her early days, where she showcased her competitive spirit in track competitions and CrossFit, to her current status as one of WWE’s top stars, Belair’s journey is a testament to her determination and passion.
One of the standout aspects of Belair’s wrestling persona is her unique gear. She recalls her early interest in sports and fashion, inspired by the iconic Florence Griffith-Joyner. This led her to design her outfits for track, CrossFit, and eventually, her wrestling gear. Her husband, Montez Ford, gifted her her first sewing machine in 2016, and she began crafting her own distinctive wrestling outfits. Among her many creations, the gear she wore against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38 holds a special place in her heart.
But Belair’s impact in WWE isn’t just limited to her attire. She’s become one of the faces of the company, representing not just a division, but an era. Her approach to her work is encapsulated by the EST moniker, emphasizing passion and love for the sport. Beyond the ring, she’s committed to community events and appearances, aiming to influence fans positively.
The recent addition of Jade Cargill to WWE’s women’s division has further excited Belair. She sees the potential for incredible matches and collaborations, emphasizing WWE’s evolution and commitment to diversity. But make no mistake, Belair’s competitive edge remains sharp. She’s determined to be the main dish in the grand feast that is WWE’s women’s division.
