WWE is heading towards Los Angeles in full swing. They need to take care of their top stars in the process. One such name is of former SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley. As known, she’s not competed at WrestleMania since 2021. Last time she had a match at the Showcase of the Immortals was inside of the Performance Centre. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, WWE was forced to put their biggest show behind closed doors. Taking this into consideration, Bayley hasn’t actually wrestled in front of a WrestleMania crowd since 2020.
In 2019 at WrestleMania 35, Bayley & Sasha Banks lost their Women’s Tag Team Championship in a Fatal-4-way match. Four years later, The Role Model needs to turn every stone on it’s head to get where she belongs. At present, she’s currently involved in a feud against Becky Lynch. Two weeks ago, both women went at each other inside of a Steel Cage. With an unexpected assistance from returning Lita, The Man emerged victorious.
By the looks, WWE is trying to make something out of this. On one side, there’s the Damage CTRL trio, led by Bayley. They’re supposedly going up against Becky Lynch, Lita and a name which is yet to officially enter the storyline. And y’all might’ve guessed it by now as that woman is none other than Trish Stratus. According to a recent report from Xero News, the Canada’s Greatest Export is set to make her WWE return on tonight’s Raw in Ottawa.
She’ll reportedly interrupt a Ding Ding Hello segment hosted by Bayley and her girls, Dakota Kai & IYO SKY. The report also added that Trish & Lita will team up to challenge Kai & SKY for the Women’s Tag Team Championship, soon enough. That match might take place on a random Raw show before WrestleMania. However, there’s certainty a huge match in the works involving Bayley and other mentioned names when WrestleMania goes Hollywood. It’s just a matter of time when things get cleared up further.

Which match was Bayley involved at her last WrestleMania?
As mentioned earlier, The Huggable One last got a chance to compete at The Show of Shows in 2020. At that juncture, she was the reigning SmackDown Women’s Champion. While defending her title in a Fatal-5-way match against Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans, Naomi and Tamina, the Role Model picked up the win. Each woman got a chance to shine and they played their part absolutely well.
Next year in Tampa at WrestleMania 37, Bayley didn’t even made to their match card. Instead, she was ha ded the duty to annoy legends and Hall of Famers. Due to which, Bayley got featured in segments with The NWO and The Bella Twins. Many of her fans took it as a disrespect for the former Hugger.
Making the matter worse, she wasn’t even available to compete the following year in Texas. By the time, the 33-year-old was recovering from a knee injury. However this year, she’s fine and available in full force. As reflected in one of her recent tweets, she’ll make it to Hollywood this year by any means.
