Bianca Belair is asked to pretend she's lesser than she is because of optics and the fragile white male ego.
While other stars of her tier get to pretend they're greater than they actually are because of optics. Charlotte "looks" the part, so she is booked as and promoted as such. Rhea "looks" the part more than an proud black chick from Tennessee, so she's booked as such.
That's all that's really going on here. Their best star is a black woman, has been a black woman for years, and they don't know what to do about that. They never really did, really.
She's just been great in spite of it because she's that undeniable. She's obviously still been booked exceptionally well all things considered, but they've still failed her. And the fans are failing her too anytime their biases against her override the reality of her historical greatness.
It's all very obvious to someone high frequency and plugged into the true nature of humans, but it's really frustrating when folks act oblivious.
