Longest reigning SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley teases her comeback status on Twitter

Bayley has been teasing about her injury situation on her Twitter handle, which appears to be a new update about her WWE comeback. SmackDown’s longest-reigning women’s champ has now been sidelined. The 33-year-old had injured her anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during preparation for her “Money in the Bank I Quit” bout against Bianca Belair back in July 2020.

The nine-month period that she was supposed to stay away from wrestling action ended in April. Despite that, Bayley has yet to make a comeback. This year, Bayley has continuously teased her followers on social media with references to a Role Model comeback.

When we interpret her most recent social media posts, they seem to suggest she is still healing from the injuries, it appears that statement may be a little deceiving. The most recent hint she tweeted was earlier in the month, when she shared a picture of what appeared to be her wrestling sneakers, with laces tied and prepared to go for a bout.

On June 23, NXT star Cora Jade sent the SmackDown star a birthday greeting on Twitter and offered her a playful challenge. Bayley appreciated her young competitor but pleaded with her to show some respect because she is still recovering from a knee injury.

She wrote, “Thanks, suga mama. PS – Please respect me, I am injured with a B.A.K.”

Another response, this time intended towards another NXT superstar, Indie Hartwell, who once more went on Twitter to greet Bayley on her birthday, further supported that claim.

The 34-year-old grand-slam winner tweeted, “Thanks, my injury won’t sloan me down.”

Bayley was not selected in the WWE Draft in October last year because she was not officially a WWE employee at the time. Meanwhile, the WWE universe had hypothesized that she might’ve been a surprise inclusion at the MITB event. However, that’s not the case.

As of now, the SmackDown superstar is officially a “free agent.” Given this most recent development, it seems like fans still will have to wait some while longer to witness her return to the ring.
