Bianca Belair is the new SmackDown Women’s Champion and she was welcomed to the ring to celebrate by her husband and fellow Superstar Montez Ford alongside his tag team partner Angelo Dawkins. Once in the ring, Belair stood center to give a much-deserved victory speech as the virtual crowd chanted EST!
One thing about me… I’m never going to apologize for doing me. Be you. Do you! Always! You are History In the Making. https://t.co/F4BIXF5E4H
“Wow. I feel like I have been floating since Saturday night. My mind is blown, my heart is filled, and I just feel so blessed. But you know, despite the setbacks and the struggles, I never stopped believing that this moment was possible.
And my family, you know my family has been making history for generations and they are the ones who showed me that when you demand greatness from yourself, that no matter how hard something may get, that you can change the game. Because if you were to ask me a year ago that I ever imagined that I would main event WrestleMania, that I would win the SmackDown Women’s Championship….well I mean I probably would have said yeah.
I mean, I would have. I probably would have said yes. But that’s not cockiness. That’s just being unapologetically me. Because everybody has some EST within themselves and when you find your EST, when you know that you are talented and you know that you work hard you should never apologize for looking somebody in their face and telling them – ‘I am the B E-S-T.’ Because if you can dream it, you can do it.
Because I went to WrestleMania and I showed up and I showed out. But you know what, it’s not just about me. Sasha Banks. Sasha, thank you because there is nobody that I would rather share the spotlight with other than you. You pushed me harder than anybody else. And it takes two. We both made history. We did.
But Sasha, if you ever try to forget it. Just know that I kind of left you with a little something to remember me by. But this is also more about Sasha too. This moment is so much bigger than that. This is for all those little girls that were watching at Raymond James Stadium or even sitting at home and especially the ones that saw themselves when they looked at me. This is for you!!
At WrestleMania, it was magic but just know we are just getting started creating history.”
After her speech she motivated The Street Profits to get themselves gold in their match that came next. Once the celebration was finished, Sasha Banks was backstage and she was fuming. Kayla Braxton was trying to interview her by commenting on their match at WrestleMania.
Banks stopped her and after saying Bianca’s name showed the mark that the SmackDown Women’s Champion left on her body from her braid. Banks didn’t get out any more words as she stormed off-screen.
With Banks unable to get her words out, Bayley saw an opportunity backstage by being interviewed by Braxton. Bayley stated that Banks probably wants a rematch but she was so angry that she couldn’t put together a sentence while Belair was out in the ring showboating. She calls Belair arrogant and the reason why Belair was crying before her match at WrestleMania was that she didn’t think she could get the job done. This all while Bayley was too busy hosting both nights to try and save the show.
She ends by saying that she is challenging Bianca to take the title from her and restore dignity to the championship.
The one women’s match of the night was Natalya facing Shayna Baszler. Baszler and Nia Jax retained their WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania against Natalya and Tamina. Tamin and Jax were both at ringside.
After a kick to the mouth to Natalya, Baszler tried to put her opponent away with the Kirifuda Clutch. Nattie shoved Baszler to the ropes avoid the submission and almost caused Baszler to run into Jax who was on the ring apron. The advantage was taken by Nattie as she rolled up Baszler for the win.
After the match, Jax went after Nattie but was stopped by Tamina to end the segment.
What did you think of Bianca’s speech? Do you think that Bayley will get a title match next or will Sasha get her rematch? Will Natalya and Tamina finally get tag team gold at some point? Leave your thoughts below.

Jazz officially gave her retirement speech on tonight’s IMPACT.
After losing to Deonna Purrazzo at last weekend’s Hardcore Justice event, Jazz promised that she would end her career officially. The match was a Career vs. Title match and the veteran Jazz was unable to grab one last title before she took her final bow.
She starts off in the middle of the ring with Jordynne Grace by her side for an emotional moment. The Phenom starts by commending Purrazzo for her win and said that she isn’t just the present of professional wrestling but the future. Jazz commends Grace as well and says the following before she was interrupted by the Knockouts Tag Team Champions, Fire ‘N Flava.
“Coming to IMPACT, hoping that I was going to have one more title run, but that didn’t happen at Hardcore Justice. You know, going into this match I knew Deonna was going to give me a run for my money, but still, I felt I had one more run. I felt that fire that I had 15 years ago, but Deonna being a true champion that you are, I know now that you are the present and the future of women wrestling. You know, Jordynne, when you gave me that call and asked me to come in and tag with you, we knew we were going to come out victorious, which we did. We got a few wins but we actually had those Knockouts tag team titles on our minds, and I just want to thank you for even considering me tagging with you. You’re the truth, girl. You’re future is bright and I mean it. Jordynne, I want to thank you and the family of IMPACT for welcoming me with open arms. I’ve never had the opportunity to work with this company through my twenty-plus years but these last few months, you talk about going out with a bang, sister, I went out with a bang.”
Fire ‘N Flava make their way out to the stage saying that it is about time that Jazz retires. An impromptu non-title match was made between the tag champs against Jazz & Grace. Jazz picked up the win for her team and had her hand raised for the last time in an IMPACT ring. After the match, she finished her retirement speech. She thanked the fans for their love and continuous support throughout the years. The IMPACT roster came out to the ring to give her a round of applause and give her a proper send-off.
After the speech was over, Fire ‘N Flava was backstage and fuming that they were forced to have a match when they weren’t even prepared. Scott D’Amore said he was tired of them always being disrespectful. He booked them to defend their Knockouts Tag Team Titles for Rebellion and originally said their opponents would be Jazz & Grace.
Once the champs stormed off, Jazz & Grace approached D’Amore. He said it was the least he could do for Jazz to give them this title match. Although she appreciates it greatly, Jazz says she has to honor her word and as a result of her loss against Purrazzo she must say goodbye to her in-ring career. However, she has the perfect partner for Grace and they will face the champs at Rebellion. D’Amore says he trusts that whoever she has in mind is a good fit and the match is set.
Who do you think will end up being Grace’s opponent?!
Will it be someone unexpected or perhaps will it be the returning Taylor Wilde. For week’s we have seen vignettes progressively showing the return of former two-time Knockouts Tag Team Champion Wilde. Tonight the most recent one finally showed Wilde with her saying “Let’s get Wilde!”

Tenille Dashwood is the current number one contender for the Knockouts Title and she will be facing Purrazzo at Rebellion. Dashwood ushered in a brand new talk show named All About Me. The talk show is a chance for her “guests” to be the “host” and ask her any questions they see fit.
Her first “host” was Gia Miller. Before Miller could get her question out, Dashwood interrupted her. She said she knows she is going to ask her how is she so sure that she is going to win the Knockouts Championship. She says she is going to win because she is good at everything and she started the women’s revolution. Dashwood feels that it is ironic that she hasn’t won the Knockouts Title yet. She has faced Purrazzo outside of IMPACT and has never lost to her.
Rebellion is set to take place on April 25.
You didn’t earn the number one contender spot, you stole it…
Time to trade in the bikini for some ring gear and actually get to work. We’ll see if you’re still as good of a wrestler as you are a “model”… ??#IMPACTonAXSTVhttps://t.co/TBhmHm8ocQ
