#4 Bayley's first non-title feud since losing the SmackDown Women's Championship

It's still odd to see Bayley outside the SmackDown Women's title picture. We often forget that while Bayley's title reign lasted over a year, the reality is that she was the Champion from June 2019 until October 2020 - with only a small and forgettable reign by Charlotte Flair being one to disrupt it.

Either way, she lost to Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell and that turned out to be the right call. With Sasha Banks having a new feud as the SmackDown Women's Champion, Bayley is officially out of the title picture.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

Bayley was also ringside for the Natalya vs Bianca Belair match on SmackDown. As you may know, WWE has been pushing Bianca Belair and given all the showings she's had so far, it's clear that the goal in mind is for her to eventually become a multi-time Women's Champion on SmackDown and eventually RAW.

Belair defeated Natalya, but it wasn't before she had a standoff with Bayley where she accidentally struck her (intending to attack Natalya, who ducked). It was a good way to set up Bayley's first non-title feud in over a year and a half. It will do wonders for Bianca Belair, who is still relatively new to the roster and is getting a major push anyway.
