WWE star Alba Fyre talks about WrestleMania's impact among fans in an interview with Fox News Digital.

LAS VEGAS – Bianca Belair has put together an iconic in-ring career with WWE, but bad luck struck during her WrestleMania 41 match last year as she suffered broken fingers.

Belair returned to be the special guest referee for a match at Evolution in July for a match between Jade Cargill and Naomi. Since then, Belair hadn’t been seen on WWE programming – until Saturday.

She made a surprise appearance at WrestleMania 42 after John Cena announced that more than 50,800 were in attendance for the event. She walked down the ramp to the cheers of fans who had been waiting a while for her to return to the ring.

Belair had a different kind of announcement to make. She revealed to the WWE Universe she was pregnant with her first child.

"It ain’t WrestleMania without a few surprises, right? So, John, I think we need to add one more to the attendance list," she said while unveiling her baby bump.

It will be the first child for the three-time women’s champion. She is married to fellow WWE wrestler Montez Ford. The two have been married since 2018. She’s the stepmother of Ford’s two children.

Belair and Ford’s child is their first together.

"This means the world to me," she wrote in a post on Instagram.
