WWE veteran does not want to see Bianca Belair face former women's champion in Queen of the Ring tournament (Exclusive)

Bianca Belair advanced to the semi-finals of the ongoing Queen of the Ring tournament and is just one step away from booking her place in the finals at WWE's upcoming premium live event. However, Dutch Mantell does not want to see her face Iyo Sky in the finals in case the EST makes it to the last round.

Belair defeated Tiffany Stratton in round two of the Queen of the Ring tournament to book her place in the semi-finals. She will face Nia Jax in the next round, with the winner booking their ticket to Saudi Arabia to crown the new Queen. In the RAW bracket, Iyo Sky will face Lyra Valkyria with the final spot on stake.

Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's SmackTalk, Dutch Mantell stated that he does not want to see another match between Bianca Belair and a Damage CTRL member. The veteran added that he would like to see WWE book a fresh match.

"I don’t know why they would go back to the same thing they were doing. Try new things, see what that does. Open another door. Because they get 52 weeks to fix it if they make a mistake. And they can tell when they make a mistake almost right away from the crowd's reaction and how they gonna accept. I will go to do, don't do what you've done before. Do something different." [27:34 onwards]

Bianca Belair also currently holds the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship along with Jade Cargill. Jade lost to Nia Jax on SmackDown after she attacked the latter with a chair.
