#1. Reason why Bianca Belair was off WWE TV

Bianca Belair returned on the last episode of RAW after a short hiatus from WWE to team up with Ruby Riott in a match against The IIconics.

Tom Colohue revealed on the latest edition of Sportskeeda's Dropkick DiSKussions podcast that the plan for Belair was to reportedly just have one match this past week on WWE RAW.

Belair was just there to fill in for the absent Liv Morgan, who is eventually expected to reunite with Riott.

Tom went on to reveal that the former NXT Superstar was not featured on WWE TV as she was on a creative hiatus, similar to Shayna Baszler.

Here's what Tom revealed told Dropkick DiSKussions host Korey Gunz:

"The plan for Bianca Belair this week was just the one match. She was essentially filling in space for Liv Morgan who will eventually rejoin Ruby Riott. Bianca Belair does not have any long-term feud with the people in the ring. Currently, Liv Morgan isn't available, and hence, Bianca Belair is being used in her place.

It's the same situation as Shayna Baszler. Creative hiatus. That's all it is. They brought her in with the idea being that The Street Profits and Bianca Belair would be squaring off against Andrade, Angel Garza, and Zelina Vega. Of course, Austin Theory was in the group at that point, and that's what made things difficult because they needed to tell the story with him."
