"If Bayley wins, we riot," says former WWE champion
Bayley has quickly become one of the most-liked stars on the WWE roster since turning babyface. However, not everyone seems to be a fan of The Role Model as Chelsea Green has been running a campaign against her on social media.
Chelsea Green and Bayley were involved in a backstage segment on WWE SmackDown this past Friday. The former blamed the latter for Piper Niven's loss against Jade Cargill in the Queen of the Ring tournament, stating that The Role Model sprinkled her "bad juju" all over them. This led to the reigning WWE Women's Champion challenging Green to a match which was then made official by SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis.
While Chelsea was under the impression that their bout on SmackDown next week would be for the gold, the duo will collide in a non-title match. The star was very vocal about her feelings on social media, asking fans to reshare her "If Bayley wins, we riot" message.
Bayley praised WWE's women's roster
The ongoing Queen of the Ring tournament has given the female stars a stage for showcasing their talent. Undoubtedly, the ladies' performance has impressed Bayley, who stated that her colleagues are having some of the best matches:
"I love it. I wish that we could do more things like this. I think Queen of the Ring has been so special and such a good highlight for women that haven’t really gotten the time to show who they are and what they can do. This last SmackDown, we had three women’s matches on the show. In a two-hour show, for us, we know how special that is. I really think all the women took the time and really showed them, ‘Okay, this is my one little chance to show what I can do.’ They all killed it. On RAW a couple days ago, and on the RAW before, I mean, they’re having some of the best matches." [H/T - Fightful]
The Role Model also expressed her desire to see more such tournaments for the women's division. In fact, she was so appreciative of the tournament style that she wanted one such tournament to decide who faces her next, just so that she could watch all the participants compete. She praised the women's division for auch high quality, almost premium live event quality matches in the tournament.
Bayley won the WWE Women's Championship at WrestleMania 40 where she defeated IYO SKY. She successfully defended the title at Backlash: France in a triple-threat match against Naomi and Tiffany Stratton.
