Bianca Belair put on the best performance in WWE Women's Royal Rumble history - lasting over 56 minutes to win the match. She was always positioned as one of WWE's brightest future stars, and the fact that she is a homegrown talent helps the reputation of the WWE Performance Center as well.

Either way, she lasted until the end, co-eliminating Charlotte Flair before sending former NXT Women's Champion Rhea Ripley over the top rope. She became the fourth WWE Women's Royal Rumble winner - following Asuka, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte Flair.

It's an elite category to be in, and WWE posted the backstage reaction on social media, with Bianca Belair hugging her husband Montez Ford while receiving a roaring ovation backstage.

Even Big E tweeted out in support of Bianca Belair, calling it a "massive pop":

It's good to see somebody as beloved backstage in WWE getting the push that they deserve. It was certainly the most wholesome moment of the Royal Rumble pay-per-view.
