She also included a video of her father's reaction, and you can check it out in her post below.

"The people that work at WWE, they know my dad, and were like, no, it's fine, it's Bianca's dad. And they're like, I know, but he can't jump the barricade. It's a video out there," she added. [0:20 - 0:30]
Belair suffered a hand injury during her Triple Threat Match against IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 41. SKY emerged victorious to retain the Women's World Championship.
Vince Russo claims Bianca Belair is the best athlete in WWE
Former WWE head writer Vince Russo recently claimed that Bianca Belair was the best pound-for-pound athlete in the company.
Speaking on an episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW earlier this year, Russo praised The EST as an athlete. He suggested that the former champion was the best athlete on the roster, and added that her promos were better when she acted naturally.
"This woman is a blue chip athlete, perhaps pound-for-pound the greatest athlete on that roster. She doesn't need that stupid stereotypical character. I could not believe she cut a promo as herself tonight and it was great," said Russo.
Bianca Belair was in a tag team with Jade Cargill last year, and they captured the Women's Tag Team Championship twice. It will be interesting to see what the promotion has planned for Belair moving forward.
