Damage CTRL leader Bayley recently gave a cheeky response as she was not included in WWE’s promotional banner.
‘The Role Model’ is heading to WrestleMania 40 after a historic win in Saturday’s 30-Woman Royal Rumble match.
Bayley, a multi-time Women’s Champion in WWE, has an opportunity to showcase that she’s still a champion material. She is eyeing to cement her legacy in WWE after winning the Royal Rumble, an achievement that has eluded her for a long time.
Bayley’s performance this past Saturday set a new record for the longest time spent a Women’s Royal Rumble at one hour and three minutes.
She entered at #3 following Natalya and the returning Naomi. After receiving some help from Damage CTRL teammates, Asuka and Kairi Sane, she eliminated Candice LaRae, Indi Hartwell, Maxxine Dupri and finally Liv Morgan to win the 7th Women’s Royal Rumble.
On January 30, WWE dropped the posters for their upcoming Road To WrestleMania tour with 2023 and 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes and 2021 Women’s Royal Rumble winner Bianca Belair gracing them. It seems that didn’t set well with Bayley.
Bayley’s response
She quote-tweeted and gave a hilarious reply as she asked why the female superstar didn’t look like her. She wrote:
“Waiiiitttttt why do I look like……..”

Bayley has secured a championship match at WrestleMania 40 with her victory. Bayley, the self-proclaimed ‘Mami-Slayer’ is eyeing to go up against Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania.
Having said that, a lot of people doubt that a Bayley-Rhea bout is in the works. Some have conjectured that the ‘Role Model’ might battle WWE Women’s Champion IYO SKY at the two-night mega event in April, given the tensions within Damage CTRL.
Who will Bayley face at WrestleMania 40?
By winning the 2024 Women’s Royal Rumble, Bayley earns the right to challenge for any championship at WrestleMania 40.
The two top women’s champions in WWE are Rhea Ripley (Women’s World Champion) and her Damage CTRL partner, Iyo Sky (WWE Women’s Champion).
Bayley announced that she will make her decision on who she will challenge at WrestleMania 40 on this Friday’s February 2 episode of SmackDown.
