WWE superstar Bayley shifted her focus from wrestling and attended the recent NBA game between the Milwaukee Bucks and Brooklyn Nets. Given her popularity and star power, no wonder the game attendees welcomed her like their own before the game. At last, after all those years where her counterparts overshadowed her, she got the respect she deserved in the Fiserv Forum.
The 34-year-old shared a picture on X of her holding a Milwaukee T-shirt with ‘Role Model’ written on it. She enjoyed her time on the basketball court and congratulated the Bucks for their win. The Role Model greeted the hometown fans before the game and talked about the upcoming SmackDown episode, which will be held in the same arena.
After winning the 2024 Women’s Royal Rumble, her journey in WWE turned upside down. Her so-called friends in the group of Damage CTRL betrayed her by brutally attacking her, but that wasn’t it, as Dakota Kai later played mind games with her and remained in the faction.
The Hugger will challenge the WWE Women’s Champion, Iyo Sky, for the title at WrestleMania. Only time will tell what new chapter will be added to this rivalry as the Showcase of the Immortals becomes imminent.
Wrestling fans compare the reaction Mercedes Mone and Bayley got when they attended their respective games

Some supporters were clamoring on X for the 34-year-old star to become the new WWE Women’s Champion at WrestleMania. Others were just impressed by the fact that she got astonishing reactions from a crowd that wasn’t even her hometown.
Many people said a lot of NBA players were great fans of wrestling and would’ve clicked a picture with her. Overall, it was clear from fans’ reactions that Bayley’s popularity is through the roof ahead of her match at the Show of Shows.
