Bayley’s Shocking WWE NXT Appearance
Bayley, famously known as The Role Model, made waves with her surprise appearance on the WWE NXT January 14th program. This unexpected return to the brand has left fans speculating about her intentions.
During the segment, Roxanne Perez, the former NXT Women’s Champion, addressed her career after losing the title to Giulia. Perez reflected on her reign and voiced disappointment in the current state of the WWE NXT women’s division, claiming it no longer deserved her presence.
Bayley interrupted Perez’s discussion, especially as she mentioned the legendary Four Horsewomen. The former NXT Women’s Champion offered Perez some advice, urging her to learn from her setbacks instead of lamenting them. However, Perez rejected the guidance, stating she no longer admired Bayley, despite previously considering her an inspiration. Tensions escalated as the two exchanged sharp words, with Bayley insisting that Perez was stuck in her ways.
The Reason Behind Bayley’s Surprise Appearance
Following the broadcast, Bayley took to X (formerly Twitter) to clarify her motivations. She wrote:
“Sorry that @roxanne_wwe runs her mouth too damn much.”
This sparked curiosity among fans, with many wondering if WWE is setting up a storyline between Bayley and Roxanne Perez. The incident also led to speculation about Bayley potentially rejoining WWE NXT full-time.
Has Bayley Returned to WWE NXT Full-Time?
Despite the buzz, The Role Model has not returned to NXT as a full-time competitor. Her appearance was solely to mentor Roxanne Perez, helping the young star navigate failure after her title loss. Bayley also emphasized her focus on her upcoming SmackDown bout against Tiffany Stratton.
However, Bayley’s brief involvement in NXT could have significant implications. The confrontation may lead to a feud with Roxanne Perez and pave the way for the young superstar’s eventual call-up to the main roster. WWE’s decision to feature The Prodigy in this storyline hints at a carefully planned strategy for the future.
