Last night's WWE Raw bout between Bianca Belair and Doudrop is said to have impressed many behind the scenes in Vince McMahon's sports entertainment juggernaut.

As per Mike Johnson over at PWInsider, Belair vs. Doudrop received rave reviews from those backstage for this latest red brand outing. Likewise, the contest received plentiful praise on social media.

For those who missed it, Bianca verbally jousted with Becky Lynch before then taking on the former Piper Niven. In a fun 11-minute encounter, both Belair and Doudrop shined, with the Scot selling particularly well for the EST's offense - and of course Bianca getting to showcase her impressive power on her way to picking up the victory via her KOD move.

While this encounter was a stellar one, the bigger picture here is Belair vs. Lynch at WrestleMania 38, with Bianca having earned herself a shot at Big Time Becks' Raw Women's Championship after the winning the titular women's match at last weekend's Elimination Chamber premium live event.

As for what Doudrup does at this year's Showcase of the Immortals, that remains to be seen. Either way, it sounds as if the talented one-time Stardom World Champion is making the right impression on WWE management.
