Wrestlemania XL is just a few days to go. With WWE announcing their festivities for the show, all eyes are on the stars heading forward. Amid all these festivities, WWE issued some brand new posters that are looking more beautiful than ever. However, fans finally got their wish fulfilled as WWE officially added Bayley to the poster for the Grandest Stage of Them All.
WWE has finally published a poster for WrestleMania XL featuring many stars, including Royal Rumble winner Bayley. The company has been receiving backlash from fans for a long time due to not giving enough spotlight to the Role Model. It was after WWE snubbed her from many promotional activities related to the Show of Shows.

Bayley won the Women’s Royal Rumble in 2024. She then went on to challenge Iyo Sky at WrestleMania. However, her role on the road to WrestleMania has not been getting enough attention from WWE. Many of her fans, including the Best in the World CM Punk, pushed for a catbird seat for Bayley. However, it took WWE long enough to have the former Women’s Champion in their promotional material for WrestleMania XL.
Besides, the 34-year-old superstar is currently in a heated feud with her former friend, Iyo Sky. The two stars are down to have a battle at WrestleMania. Some fans are even lashing out this match to have a main event spot at the Show of Shows this year. It is going to be interesting to see if The Role Model will get the required attention and respect from the WWE in the future on the dynamic road to WrestleMania.
Bayley posted a cryptic message about Damage CTRL
The build-up to WrestleMania has been amazing. The ongoing feud between Bayley and Iyo Sky has been getting richer every day. Fans are amped to see the showdown between the mentor and mentee heading forward. After the return of Dakota Kai on SmackDown, fans have been wondering about her role at WrestleMania. Bayley has now posted a cryptic post, which adds another layer to the speculation.

The Role Model on her X posted a picture of Damage CTRL when they were together. Kai has been walking out in the picture, which symbolizes the current relationship between her and Bayley. The former Women’s Champion is reluctant to trust Dakota on the road to WrestleMania after the betrayal by Sky. It was an apt post to define the ongoing relationship between the group.
Moreover, Kai is all set to return to in-ring action this week on SmackDown. She will team up with Bayley to take on the Kabuki Warriors. It is going to be marked as the first match for Kai after her knee surgery. Besides, it is certain to have some pivotal and explosive moments heading to WrestleMania.
