In a rare moment of breaking character, WWE Superstar Bayley took to social media to deliver a heartfelt birthday message to fellow wrestler Iyo Sky, celebrating her 34th birthday. The gesture came as a surprise to fans, as it’s not often that wrestlers break character to show a more personal side.
The Queen of Harts, known for her tough and feisty in-ring persona, couldn’t help but express her admiration for Iyo Sky, who recently defeated Natalya in the first round of the Queen of the Ring tournament on Monday Night RAW. Bayley, the current WWE Women’s Champion, revealed that Iyo Sky was the 60th woman she has wrestled in the company and that she loves sharing the ring with her.
The two superstars have a history, having faced off at WrestleMania last month, where Bayley emerged victorious and became the new WWE Women’s Champion. Their rivalry has been a highlight of the women’s division, and it’s clear that Bayley holds a deep respect for her opponent.
In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Bill Apter, Bayley opened up about her experience with Iyo Sky and the rest of Damage CTRL, a faction she was once a part of. Bayley revealed that she had suspected the group was planning to betray her, and she was able to anticipate their move and leave the faction before it was too late.
The drama surrounding Bayley and Damage CTRL has been a hot topic in the WWE universe, with Dakota Kai recently claiming that Bayley was too controlling and that the group was better off without her. Despite the tension, Bayley’s message to Iyo Sky shows that there is still a sense of camaraderie and respect between the two wrestlers.
Bayley’s heartfelt message serves as a reminder that, behind the characters and storylines, WWE superstars are people too, with genuine relationships and connections. As the WWE universe continues to follow the ongoing drama between Bayley and Damage CTRL, this rare moment of breaking character is a welcome change of pace.
