Bayley is confidently marching toward the Elimination Chamber with a dream of fighting for the Women’s World Title at WrestleMania. However, her road to the spectacle hit a major roadblock last night when she went toe-to-toe with rising star Cora Jade. The Role Model never expected what came next was a shocking defeat at the hands of The Sorceress of Sin on NXT.
The former Women’s Champion exuded confidence ahead of her showdown with the NXT superstar. She kicked off the show with strong words and maintained control for most of the match. However, a well-timed distraction from her current rival, Roxanne Perez, provided Cora Jade with the perfect opening. That was all the 24-year-old needed to seize the biggest victory of her career.
Interestingly, The Prodigy knew exactly how to get under The Role Model’s skin. The 23-year-old stepped out in Bayley’s iconic gear from her “Hugger” Era, evoking memories of the former Women’s Champion’s past. Perez didn’t stop there; she even entered the ring to ensure the WWE veteran suffered a crushing defeat. Her plan worked, as she successfully took down the 35-year-old just days before her huge match.

Moreover, beyond the Elimination Chamber Match, Bayley also has a golden opportunity to capture the NXT Women’s Championship. At NXT Vengeance Day, The Role Model will battle Giulia, Roxanne Perez, and Cora Jade in a high-stakes Fatal 4-Way match for the title. With this shocking loss fresh in her mind, it will be interesting to see how it impacts the veteran’s confidence heading into the showdown.

Furthermore, Jade has come close to winning the NXT Championship multiple times, but has never managed to seal the deal. This latest victory, however, adds an intriguing layer to her journey. Defeating a decorated talent like Bayley could be a turning point in her career.
