Naomi broke down in tears during an emotional promo with Bianca Belair after addressing the betrayal she felt. NWA Hall of Famer Bill Apter has now shed light on the authenticity of that emotional moment.

Apter discussed this topic during his appearance on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge’s “The Wrestling Time Machine” show. He addressed the real emotions behind Naomi’s tearful promo moment.

Apter explained that Naomi’s emotional response stemmed from her deep immersion in her WWE character. He compared this to method acting, where performers truly embody their roles.

You see, once you get into your character in this business and you believe what’s going on, it’s like method acting, so to say. You become that person, and she really believes what went on and it was real to her. The emotion and the crying was real to her. She was in a real place.

According to Apter, professional wrestlers often experience genuine emotions when they fully commit to their storylines. This commitment allows them to deliver authentic reactions during key moments.

The promo in question featured Naomi confronting Belair about feeling betrayed. The emotional segment gained attention from fans due to the visible tears and raw emotion displayed.

WWE has continued to develop the storyline between Naomi, Belair, and Cargill following this emotional confrontation. The trio’s complex relationship remains a focal point of current programming.

Naomi has created a surprising new nickname for her former tag team partners Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill amid their ongoing feud.

The three women previously formed a successful alliance at WrestleMania 40, defeating Damage CTRL in a six-woman tag team match.

Naomi addressed her deteriorating relationship with Belair and Cargill through social media after a fan shared a photo of Cargill and Belair at an NBA game.

The fan questioned whether the two had deleted photos of each other following their recent confrontations, prompting Naomi to reveal her perspective on the trio’s fallout.

I’m still trying to figure out how I became the 6th toe in the group when I was friends with them both first! I brought this ish together!!!!!! 😤 THE UNGRATEFULS!

This social media exchange adds another layer to their complex storyline, which began after Naomi confessed to attacking Cargill. The situation has grown increasingly complicated as Belair now prepares for her Women’s World Championship match against IYO SKY at WrestleMania 41.

Belair recently won the Elimination Chamber match, securing her title opportunity in Las Vegas despite dealing with the emotional aftermath of issues involving both Naomi and Cargill.

Cargill returned to WWE programming with an attack on Naomi, revealing her former partner was responsible for the November assault that temporarily sidelined her.

Naomi confronted Bianca Belair on last Friday’s SmackDown regarding the attack on Jade Cargill from last November. The former SmackDown Women’s Champion admitted to the assault but claimed she did it for Belair.

Bianca walked away from the revelation while processing the information. Jade Cargill then appeared and attacked Naomi to conclude the segment.

Following the confrontation, Jade and Naomi exchanged messages on social media. Cargill promised continued retribution while mocking WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, Naomi’s father-in-law, whose promo style Naomi had referenced during SmackDown.

Naomi attempted to sway Belair to her side by tagging her in a response to Jade’s threats. She wrote on X/Twitter:

@BiancaBelairWWE! See!

Bianca currently finds herself in a parallel storyline on RAW. The EST is pursuing IYO SKY, the Women’s World Champion, with their match scheduled for WrestleMania 41.
