Bayley suffered an injury while training and will miss roughly nine months, according to WWE.com. The story also states that a suitable replacement will be announced during tonight’s Smackdown television show for the Smackdown Women’s Championship match at Money in the Bank.
Powell’s POV: The WWE article did not provide any specifics regarding the nature of the injury. Here’s wishing Bayley the best in her recovery.
Plenty of time to grow her Karen hair back into a normal style.
The lack of specificity has me wondering if it’s a work. No video/photo, no mention of a body part, just an injury while training.
If not, hopefully she recovers fully and can jump back into the mix.
BAYLEY TORE HER ACL. IT IS A COMMON INURY AMONG ATHLETES.
NFL TRAINING CAMPS WILL BE OPENING UP IN LATE JULY YOU WILL SEE REPORTS OF VARIOUS NFL PLAYERS SUFFERING ACL INJURIES IN PRACTICE WHICH MAY END THEIR CHANCES TO PLAY IN THE 2021 REGULAR SEASON.
THe good thing about bayley is that she can appear on tv in a non wrestling role once she is done with surgery and off her crutches.
wwe is entertainment and bayley can still be on the wwe tv shows in some capacity while she rehabs her ACL INJURY.
Before I even saw it was her knee I figured it was related to those stupid CrossFit box jumps she does
I’m still not buying it.
They claim it was done while “chain wrestling” with a WWE staff member. They waited two days to put that out there, and then never officially said it’s an ACL. She cut a promo about it with her leg propped up and knee brace visible last night. Bianca Belair questioned if it’s a real injury on air last night.
It’s probably legit, but something just feels fishy about it.
