Bayley set to address recent altercation on WWE SmackDown
Bayley is set to address the events that took place last Friday night on tonight's episode of WWE SmackDown.
The 34-year-old won the Women's Royal Rumble match on January 27. She was the third entrant in the bout but outlasted the 29 other superstars to punch her ticket to WrestleMania 40. The Role Model appeared destined to challenge Rhea Ripley for the Women's World Championship to bring more gold to Damage CTRL. However, that is no longer the case, and she will be challenging Iyo Sky for the WWE Women's Championship instead.
The Royal Rumble winner revealed that she has overhead her former Damage CTRL stablemates talking trash about her in Japanese. She noted that she had been around for a while and knew the group was getting ready to betray her. Women's Tag Team Champions The Kabuki Warriors attacked from behind, but Bayley fought them off with a pipe.
It has been announced that the former champion will be addressing her exit from Damage CTRL later tonight on SmackDown.
Triple H will also be addressing the fallout from the WrestleMania 40 Kickoff press conference on tonight's show. Bianca Belair and Mia Yim will also be squaring off in an Elimination Chamber qualifying match later tonight.
