In a recent interview following Legends Of The Ring fanfest, WWE Hall Of Famer Booker T and wrestling legend Bill Apter were discussing their predictions for Extreme Rules 2022 that’s happening this Saturday. In his picks, he predicted who will win Bianca Belair vs Bayley match.
He happened to pick Bayley as the winner of the match versus Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s Championship. He believed that Bayley was back to make a statement, and this would be her moment to make the statement.
“For some reason, I’m going to go with Bayley in this match…I think it would be a moment to make a statement in a match like that,” Booker T was quoted as saying by Sportskeeda. (2:17-2:28)
Who is the favorite to win Bianca Belair vs Bayley match?
Bayley and Belair had a rivalry going since last year. After losing twice, Bayley was supposed to face Belair in an “I Quit” match at Money in the Bank 2021. An ACL tear during training for the match, sidelined her for 9 months.
Bianca Belair has held the RAW Women’s title for 6 months which she won from Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38.

Since Bayley’s return at SummerSlam 2022, she has renewed her rivalry with Belair. She and her Damage CTRL teammates have targeted Belair and her friends. Damage CTRL has come out on top on most occasions. Now the two face each other in a Ladders match at Extreme Rules.
Bianca Belair is a multi-time Women’s champion and is the reigning RAW Women’s Champion. She is easily the top female athlete in WWE. But she has mostly received the short end of the stick in her encounters with Bayley and company. She has something to prove here as a legitimate champion, who won’t be taken for granted.

But let’s not forget that Bayley is the longest reigning SmackDown Women’s champion in history. She is on a roll lately. Booker T could be on point here with his pick for the contest.
