WWE Champion Pinned For First Time In 300+ Days
This superstar has been one of the toughEST to pin in the company this year.
While everyone makes a huge deal about how long it's been since Roman Reigns took a pinfall loss, we saw a women's champion lose via pin for the first time in 10 months Saturday.
Raw Women's Champion Bianca Belair was pinned for the first time in 307 days at Clash at the Castle when Bayley held her shoulders to the mat after a trifecta of finishers. The loss came in a six-woman tag match that saw Bayley's Damage Control faction topple Belair, Asuka and Alexa Bliss.
The loss was Belair's first pinfall defeat since the 1 November, 2021 Raw when Becky Lynch pinned the EST to retain her Raw title. Since then, Bianca has been on the losing end of only four matches, not being pinned in any of them. Her only loss since winning the Raw Women's Championship came via countout to Carmella in July.

Though the loss only came after Bayley, Kai & Sky all hit finishers on Belair, it's safe to assume that the Role Model will try to parlay this rare pinfall victory into a Raw title match in the very near future. Bianca last defended the Raw Women's Championship at SummerSlam against Becky Lynch, so she's due to put the title up for grabs.
