Bayley Faces Massive WWE Clash At The Castle Title Challenge
Bayley does not have to chase challengers for her WWE Women’s Title as a new one stakes their claim for the Role Model’s title.
On SmackDown in Albany, NY Nia Jax had her coronation after becoming Queen of the Ring in Saudi Arabia. Jax was very aware that due to her big win, she’d now challenge for the WWE Women’s Championship at SummerSlam and her first royal command was that the current champion Bayley make her way to the ring.
Bayley began her entrance but she was quickly attacked from behind by Piper Niven and Chelsea Green. The former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions confronted Jax and told her that by the time she gets her title shot, it won’t be Bayley that she has to worry about.
Later in the night, the champion found a friend in Naomi and they took on Niven and Green in a tag team contest but Chelsea Green pulled out the unlikely win for her team. It was confirmed by WWE that Piper Niven will now challenge Bayley for the WWE Women’s Title at Clash at the Castle on June 15th.
The WWE Women’s Championship will be on the line when @itsBayleyWWE defends her title against Scotland’s own, @PiperNivenWWE.

Bayley Faces Huge Scottish Challenge To Keep WWE Gold
That, of course, means that Piper Niven will be fighting for the title in her home country of Scotland. Niven made her name in Scotland as Viper and is another of the Ayrshire contingent of wrestlers to have made a huge splash in the business that include Drew McIntyre and Grado.
Drew McIntyre will challenge Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship at Clash at the Castle, and both he and Piper Niven are sure to receive a huge ovation in Glasgow.
