Bianca Belair hopes the 2025 Royal Rumble match has even more local star power.
WWE recently confirmed Indianapolis will host the event at Lucas Oil Stadium on February 1st 2025. Bianca Belair spoke with Matt Aguilar for ComicBook Nation at the press conference, and he asked the EST about the potential of a “team up” with WNBA star Caitlin Clark.
Clark has taken the WNBA by storm, bring new eyes on the product and drawing huge crowds never seen before in the women’s game. She currently plays for the Indiana Fever, and would likely get a huge reaction from a hometown crowd at the Lucas Oil Stadium.
“Everybody’s already asking that. Even before the press conference, they’re bringing up Caitlin Clark. Listen, I love what’s happening with the WNBA. I love that women are getting more spotlight and more attention,” Bianca Belair explained. “I’ve always said, you know, we don’t need to do anything different; we just need the opportunities. We need the media coverage, and the WNBA is doing that.”
Belair said WWE has done a lot of unprecedented things for women’s wrestlers, and it would be “really cool” to see them team with the WNBA to expand their respective reaches.
“So, Caitlin Clark, if you’re watching, come on and join. Come in the Royal Rumble. You can be one of the 30 participants,” Belair proclaimed. “That’s what’s exciting about the Royal Rumble, right? You never know what’s going to happen. It could be the past, the present, the future, or just someone that you don’t expect. So, you might see Caitlin Clark in the 2025 Royal Rumble right here in Indianapolis.”
