Bayley made a shocking return to WWE Raw and it sparked immediate rumors that she’d already put pen to paper on a new WWE deal. However, according to the latest report, that’s getting ahead of the facts.
Bayley had been away from WWE television since July, losing to Lyra Valkyria at Saturday Night’s Main Event, with Valkyria continuing to attack her afterward in what many read as a write-off.
That absence, combined with reports that her contract was nearing its end, fueled weeks of speculation about her WWE future.
That speculation only intensified once Bayley actually returned, costing Valkyria her Money in the Bank qualification and resuming their feud. Several outlets quickly reported that the move confirmed she’d re-signed.
Update On Bayley
However, PWInsider has pushed back on those claims, stating that Bayley has not yet made a decision on her future with the company, and that there have been no conversations about a new deal since she still has considerable time remaining on her current contract.
There are reports that Bayley signed a new WWE deal with that report attributed to Dave Meltzer. That is incorrect.
Multiple WWE sources have indicated that there were no conversations about Bayley signing a new deal as she still has lots of time left on her contract.
Anyone claiming she signed a new deal as a condition of her return would be 100% wrong.
