After being drafted to SmackDown with the Raw Women's title, Bianca Belair has said she doesn't care what she wears because all she cares about is being champion. Belair has been Raw Women's Champion for a record 417 days, since defeating Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38 in 2022, but she was pushed to SmackDown WWE's draft earlier this month, despite holding the red brand's flag. Rhea Ripley, the SmackDown Women's Champion, took the opposite route, claiming she holds the brand's title even though competing on Monday Night Raw. The change has sparked rumors that we may see a belt swap between the two superstars, with the expectation that it will be better than Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair's disastrous switch in 2021, where Flair's reluctance to make the swap made for uncomfortable viewing. However, the EST of WWE denied any knowledge of a potential belt swap and said that all she cares about is being a champion, regardless of the belt she wears.
