Now that she doesn't have a title, can the Bianca character exist without having to always chase or have a belt? Or does she suffer from Charlotte booking where a title is the definition of their existence as a character? If anything her booking is more Charlotte-booking than Charlotte's is.

It seems to me she gets the same backlash that Alexa Bliss had when after she lost her last singles title, many people wanted her to get a break from being the top champion. And that got their wish for the previous 4 years or so.
But I am sure for some if she wins the title over the next 18 months it will be too soon so shrug.

Best thing about this is I can start liking Bianca again. Same, not that I ever started disliking her or anything.

I think the problem with Bianca's reign was that I think she's been champion for like 75% of the time she's been on the main roster. And she has had the same gimmick ever since she made her official debut in NXT. And you can probably count the number of times she has been pinned on one or two hands? If you even want to call it that. I don't think she's ever actually been pinned decisively clean on main roster TV though outside of the Becky squash at Summerslam. It doesn't help that this reign exposed her promo skills as subpar, and her actual in ring work being wildly inconsistent. She can have good matches with women like Sasha/Mercedes and Iyo, but otherwise her matches tend to be wildly forgettable to outright awful. And her selling is among the worst on the main roster right now. She just constantly forgets to sell stuff. Hell, look at the Asuka match from Saturday. Where the story being told over the past couple of days was that Asuka was working on the arm of Bianca, and like five minutes after Asuka stopped working on it, Bianca was no selling it like it never happened. I think a lot of the ire towards Bianca only really started manifesting during the Damage CTRL feud, especially at Extreme Rules in that ladder match where she took out all three members on her own without breaking a sweat.
