Bayley Allegedly Hasn’t Recovered From WWE Creative Mistake
Bayley has been missing in action for quite some time now.
Bayley has been one of the most formidable female Superstars in WWE. However, fans across the globe question her recent performance and her absence on WWE TV. On The Keepin’ It 100 show, former wrestler Konnan thinks that she hasn’t recovered from WWE putting her into Damage CTRL.
On the show, Disco Inferno spoke about Jonathan Coachman’s earlier comments about WWE keeping Bayley away from WWE TV because she is constantly sharing photos of herself with AEW’s Mercedes Mone. However, Disco and Konan disagree with that thought. Disco stated that Bayley’s involvement with the heel faction Damage CTRL really hurt her career and that she hasn’t been able to recover since. Konan agreed with his co-host, saying that the former champion’s involvement with the group went on for too long.
“Yep, I agree with everything you said. That dragged her down because they wanted that to work so much and it wasn’t working. They kept pushing and pushing. I was like, ‘ Dude, just give it up and change it.’ Like you said, that’s correct, she hasn’t recovered, yeah.”[6:10 – 6:36]
Bayley Was Supposed To Be On WrestleMania 41
In the weeks leading up to WrestleMania 41, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria had formed a tag team. The duo lasted an entire Gauntlet Match to become the No. 1 Contenders for the Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania. However, the former Women’s Champion was attacked backstage and pulled from the Show Of Shows.
On the day of her title match against Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, Lyra Valkyria made her way to the ring and revealed her mystery partner as Becky Lynch. The Man and Valkyria beat Morgan and Rodriguez to win tag team gold. However, they dropped the titles the next night in a rematch.
