The rumor mill has been busy churning out tidbit after tidbit on what’s been going on behind-the-scenes with Bayley and WWE. It hasn’t exactly been clear until recently what she would be doing in the near future, be it re-signing with the company or bailing to head for AEW and a reunion with her bestie Mercedes Mone.
Now we know for certain.
That’s because Bayley made her return to television on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw in Alabama, showing up just in time to cost Lyra Valkyria a Money in the Bank qualifying match.
We haven’t seen her on television dating back to Saturday Night’s Main Event on July 18 at Madison Square Garden in New York, where she was, as my man Sean put it, beaten and then beaten up by Valkyria, though she did work some house shows. The expectation was always that if we saw her again in WWE, it would mean she’s back with the company, likely for good.
She signed with WWE all the way back in 2012. She’s 37-years-old but sure looks to me like she’s got plenty left in the tank.
