Bianca Belair Wasn’t Vince McMahon First Choice To Win 2021 Women’s Royal Rumble Match

Although Bianca Belair won the 30-Woman Royal Rumble match in 2021, she wasn’t Vince McMahon’s very first option. Rather, he wished to choose Charlotte Flair, who won the match the year prior to.

This is according to previous WWE author Chris Dunn. Speaking on the Public Enemies Podcast, Dunn shared why things altered:

“I remained in a Tampa Hotel space and we were seeing some sort of football video game and an assistant had actually simply left the Royal Rumble (2021) night-before conference and they altered the surface and Charlotte [Style] was going to review and they practiced Charlotte reviewing and Bianca [Belair] was going to get removed like midway through the match and it got altered to Bianca discussing and I believe a great deal of individuals voiced it however this man, Ryan Ward, he’s been there for like 14 years, he was [John] Cena’s author and most likely, for my cash, I believe has actually had the most significant hand in the ladies’s transformation.”

“He was the lead author in the golden days of NXT with Kevin [Owens] and Sami [Zayn] and The Four Horsewomen, all that things. From my understanding, what I heard, he sort of stated something to Vince McMahon to the result of, ‘Vince, if you take a look at the Royal Rumble tomorrow, you have Edge winning and Charlotte winning. We’re not making any brand-new stars’ and I believe that truly resonated and Bianca was on such a roll where it sort of made good sense and she likewise needed to, once again, right after that match, actually nail that post-match discount and she did it and she was excellent and simply incredible.”
