WWE Superstar Bianca Belair was a recent guest on “The Casual Podcast” to discuss a variety of topics, including the origins of her EST character, how she developed the gimmick, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the origins of her EST character: “It actually naturally just happened. I remember having a talk with Mark Henry, who’s a WWE Hall of Famer. He’s the one who got me a tryout, and he was telling me, ‘Who do you want to be in the ring? You want to be [someone] that people can easily understand and they can grasp onto.’”
On developing the gimmick: “I feel like I’m the best. I feel like I’m just the strongest, I’m the fastest. I’m the roughest, I’m the toughest, I’m the quickest, I’m the greatest. I’m just the best, and I realized all those things ended in ‘est’ and that’s the way that I could simplify it.”
