Bianca Belair Reveals Triple H Pitched WrestleMania Pregnancy Announcement

Bianca Belair made her return to WWE television at WrestleMania 42, and she wasn’t alone.

Belair announced her pregnancy during a segment with host John Cena. She had been sidelined from in-ring competition since WrestleMania 41 with a finger injury, though she did serve as the special guest referee at WWE Evolution.

On her vlog, Bianca revealed when the Mania announcement came together.

“I was dead set on announcing it on my birthday. I texted him, he didn’t text back, so I said, ‘Okay, I’ll announce it on my birthday.’ He just texted back. He said yes. Now, I can’t go back on it,” she said.

Her husband Montez Ford said, “We planned to go to Miami from April 8 to April 12 and we were going to announce it on her birthday (April 9). Once we got to WrestleMania, everybody already knows, so it’s cool. Now that this is happening, it completely changes everything. Now, we have to keep hiding her for another four weeks.” 

Bianca added, “Originally, I texted Hunter, and I told him I was pregnant. He was super excited and was like, ‘How are you gonna announce it? What about WrestleMania?’ I was like, ‘Well, like me talk to [Montez] about it. That would be cool. At least I could still be part of WrestleMania. Let me think about it.’ I was enjoying this bubble and was in a space where I didn’t want to announce it. I honestly just wanted to tell my family and friends and hard launch a baby. ‘This is mine. I don’t want to announce it.’ I said, ‘Let me think about it.’ Finally, we were talking and I said, ‘Let’s do WrestleMania. What about me coming out frist thing, with my bump, and opening WrestleMania.’ It’s Mania season, so I didn’t get a text back for a while. They are busy, of course. I thought, ‘Maybe it’s a no. Fuck it, I’ll just announce it on my birthday.’ We got dead set on that. ‘Let’s announce it on my birthday, and I go to Mania, I can go around and party in Vegas.’ Then, Hunter texted me back, ‘Sorry for the delay. Yes and yes.'”

Bianca had her baby shower on May 16. Fans can learn more here.

Montez will team with Angelo Dawkins to challenge Austin Theory & Logan Paul for the WWE World Tag Team Championships at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event.
