Bayley reacts after devastating loss to Nia Jax at WWE SummerSlam; popular star tries to console former champion
SummerSlam is in the books and the event was a crowning moment for four stars in particular as they walked out with championship gold. Meanwhile, Bayley reacted to her devastating loss to Nia Jax and was consoled by Michin.
Earlier this year, Bayley cemented herself as the biggest face on the brand and went head-to-head against Damage CTRL's IYO SKY. After walking out as WWE Women's Champion at WrestleMania XL, new challengers lined up to face The Role Model on Friday Night SmackDown.
After over 110 days, Bayley's run as champion ended when Nia Jax defeated her in Ohio at The Biggest Party of the Summer. Later, The Role Model reacted to her devastating loss and was confronted by Mia 'Michin' Yim where the two stars teased unfinished business with Queen Nia and Princess Tiffany.
"I told you not to be out there. It's okay, that's on me," Bayley said. (From 00:08 to 00:15)

Nia Jax spoke highly of Tiffany Stratton after defeating Bayley at WWE SummerSlam
Earlier this year, Tiffany Stratton organically got over with the crowd as the rising star possesses every tool to become a major name in the coming years. After WrestleMania XL, she formed a new alliance with Nia Jax, who's been unstoppable in WWE since her return in 2023.
The Irresistible Force once again reached the top of the mountain when she defeated Bayley for the WWE Women's Championship at SummerSlam. During the press conference, Jax spoke highly of Tiffany Stratton and how their alliance started in the company.
"We clicked right off the bat. Let's be real, she's so cute. She's incredibly talented in the ring and she's like a lightning in a bottle. It's very rare to see it here. She's two and a half years in and she gets it. She's athletic, she's got this aura about her," Jax said. (From 19:40 to 20:00)

It'll be interesting to see how long the two will remain on the same page in the coming months.
