This week’s SmackDown delivered some high-caliber moments. The show revolved around the aftermath of the Royal Rumble. Bayley was victorious last week at the Rumble, and she was asked to announce her opponent for WrestleMania this week. The Role Model took matters into her own hands and challenged Iyo Sky for a match at WrestleMania after months of being slandered by the Japanese superstar.

Bayley shocked the world when she uttered it in Japanese. She then went on to make Sky realize that she knew what was going on behind her back. It led to an ambush by Kairi Sane and Asuka on Bayley. However, the Role Model countered it with a steel pipe, which made the Japanese superstars run for their lives. This moment was followed by Bayley challenging Sky for the title at WrestleMania.

It needs to be noted that Dakota Kai was missing from the fray this week. However, WWE didn’t hold back from pulling the trigger on the breakup of Damage CTRL. This moment led to Bayley declaring war against the Genius of the Sky. Bayley has also turned a babyface now, which is going to add some flavor to this already-established feud.
