WWE star and winner of the 2024 Women’s Royal Rumble Match Bayley recently appeared on an episode of Xfinity Hangouts, where she talked about a number of topics including how she never thought Women’s Champion IYO SKY would be her first singles opponent at WrestleMania.
Bayley said, “That is something I never thought would happen. I used to think my first singles match was going to be with Sasha [Sasha Banks aka Mercedes Mone]. Then I started thinking maybe it was going to be with Bianca [Bianca Belair]. The fact that it’s IYO is mind-blowing.”
“When I envision my matches and I put my matches together, in my mind, as I see myself doing this stuff, I’m wrestling as good as IYO SKY. Then I watch myself do it and I’m like, ‘Oh God, that looks nothing like I thought it was going to look like. That’s terrible.’ Now I have to get in there with her. It’s intimidating because she does things no one else can do. It will be an honor to take (the title) off of IYO.”
