The newly crowned WWE Women’s Champion, Bayley, emerged victorious at WrestleMania XL after defeating IYO SKY in a highly anticipated showdown.
However, her reign faced immediate challenges as Tiffany Stratton and Naomi emerged as potential contenders on the recent episode of SmackDown.
In a hard-fought main event, Bayley clashed with Naomi, only to have the match disrupted by Tiffany Stratton’s interference.
Despite the chaos, Bayley retained her title, setting the stage for her next defense, possibly at Backlash France.
As speculation mounts regarding her next opponent, several potential matchups loom on the horizon:
1. Rematch with Naomi: Despite the inconclusive end to their recent bout, Naomi remains a formidable challenger. SmackDown GM Nick Aldis may consider scheduling a rematch at Backlash France, with the added stipulation of banning Tiffany Stratton from ringside.
2. Battle against Tiffany Stratton: The Buff Barbie’s surprise attack on Bayley underscores her desire for championship gold. Bayley may seek retribution against Stratton by challenging her for the title, further intensifying their rivalry.
3. Rekindling the feud with IYO SKY: Former champion IYO SKY has a legitimate claim for a rematch after her WrestleMania loss. Their previous encounter was a highlight of the event, making a rematch a tantalizing prospect for fans.
