Bayley has opened up about forming a new faction with Dakota Kai and IYO SKY (fka Io Shirai).
They all returned at SummerSlam by confronting Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair following their RAW Women’s Title bout. On Monday’s RAW, they attacked Lynch to write her off television as she is dealing with a separated shoulder injury.
While speaking on After The Bell, Bayley confirmed that she had pitched the faction to Triple H in the past.
“This is something that I’ve wanted for a while, I would say a couple of years. (It’s) actually something that I’ve talked to (Triple H) about before. Just wanting something different for the division and using girls that I think were either underutilized or that didn’t get that opportunity or didn’t get that spotlight. Just a way to evolve myself as in like many different variations of this faction or group that I wanted.”
Bayley also explained why she wanted people not previously on the main roster.
“But as I got injured and got to spend more time really thinking about it, I knew that I wanted literally girls who haven’t had the opportunity (to be on) Raw or Smackdown or that haven’t been given an opportunity to feel what WrestleMania is like. Because that’s the ultimate goal of everybody.
“I just felt like if I look for girls that haven’t had that yet, just the hunger is gonna be that much stronger. It’s just gonna be fresher for the fans and fresher for the locker room where they’ll get excited to work with different people.
“Once I thought of it like that, (I) thought let me look at NXT. It was so easy. I knew who I wanted and I knew who could benefit from it. I knew who I can benefit from.”
