Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, involving Bianca Belair and SmackDown.
β’ Today, social media was abuzz with rumors about Bianca Belair potentially being taken off the road due to pregnancy speculation.
A screenshot of Montez Ford’s Instagram profile, which showed the phrase “Father of 3,” sparked fan theories that Bianca might be pregnant. The rumor gained momentum solely from the screenshot. It’s also worth noting that the “Father of 3” line is not present Ford’s Instagram bio.
The rumor was obviously false, as Belair wrestled on tonight’s SmackDown and defeated Tiffany Stratton to advance to the next round of the Queen of the Ring tournament.
The only WWE star that reacted to these rumors was Montez’s tag team partner Angelo Dawkins, who couldn’t stop laughing:
