Bayley is already feeling the pressure on the road to WrestleMania.
SmackDown Superstar Bayley was a recent guest on Gabby AF. When asked about her match tonight against Bianca Belair, Bayley said she doesn’t know who else she’d start her year with other than the EST of WWE.
“Honestly, I know the fans are laughing at this that we’re doing this match again,” Bayley said. “And it is hilarious. It’s like Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero had a million matches together because they’re all just classics. So, of course, they just gotta sit down, relax, and enjoy. I don’t know who else I would start my year with than with Bianca Belair.
“I ended my year with her; I got to start my year with her. It’s like we’re married to each other for a while. I think that IYO started the year out hot for Damage CTRL. We’re on a winning streak; we’re 1 and 0 in 2024. So yeah, it’s a little bit of pressure to keep that going. As fans know, I don’t have the best win-loss record at the moment. But it’s a new year. New year, new me, Bayley AF, I’m going to beat Bianca Belair.”
When asked if she’s feeling any pressure going into tonight’s match, Bayley admits that she does feel the pressure because she’s supposed to set an example for the rest of Damage CTRL.
“Yeah, a little bit because it’s like, I’d feel a little embarrassed,” Bayley admitted. “I’m supposed to be this person that they look up to, and I’m supposed to be someone that they learn from, and they can watch and be like, ‘Oh, that’s how she did that.’
“But if I fail, it’s like watching their big sister not accomplish what she set out to do, and how does that set a good tone for the rest of the team? So yeah, I feel a little bit of pressure. But I have been training very hard all week. So you know, one week’s got to do it, right? I think I finally figured out how to beat Bianca. I think so, I won’t tell you how. I’ll just show you.”
