#2 Flopped at Survivor Series: Bayley

Peyton Royce stunned Bayley at Survivor Series

The list of flops at Survivor Series is weirdly shocking, and we have no explanation for that. The second person on this list is none other than the former SmackDown Women’s Champion, Bayley. RAW’s Peyton Royce successfully eliminated Bayley soon after she got one good spot. It was as shocking as it could get and made Bayley look quite underwhelming in this match.

Prior to her elimination, Bayley was far from the level that you would expect her to be while leading SmackDown at Survivor Series. In fact, she looked weaker than she had ever looked in the recent memory except for her new-found attitude. She could have had a compelling exchange with the likes of Shayna Baszler and Lacey Evans, but their in-ring encounters were criminally limited.

The only good thing about Bayley’s shocking elimination from this match was the fact that she at least helped in putting Peyton Royce over in this match. The fact that she was the only member of SmackDown’s Survivor Series team who was picked for the team instead of going through a qualifier made her elimination look worse. It will be interesting to see what’s in store for her on the blue brand following the pay-per-view.
