Could The EST of WWE be going to WrestleMania?

#3 Bianca Belair set a record in last year's Royal Rumble match

Bianca Belair was a breakout performer in the 2020 Royal Rumble. Last year, Bianca Belair entered the Royal Rumble in the number two spot, following former RAW Women's Champion Alexa Bliss.

In her Royal Rumble debut, Bianca Belair tore through her opponents and managed to eliminate eight other women. This set a Royal Rumble record, beating the previous one of five eliminations that was set by Michelle McCool in 2018.

Bianca Belair also lasted an impressive amount of time in the match and managed to stay in the ring for over thirty minutes, which made her that year's Iron Woman, outstaying many high-profile WWE Superstars.

During the match, Belair was the one to throw out some huge names, including returning WWE legend Molly Holly, and both former WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss.

Despite not winning, Bianca Belair's Royal Rumble performance overshadowed what went down after she was eliminated, and was somewhat of a star-making match from the then-NXT Superstar, which paved the way for her WWE main roster career.
