Bayley Backstage At TNA Lockdown

Amidst uncertainty around her WWE future, Bayley was backstage at last night's TNA Lockdown pay-per-view, it has been revealed.

PWInsider has reported that Bayley was backstage in Chicago to support Elayna Black (FKA Cora Jade). Black unsuccessfully challenged Xia Brookside for the TNA Knockouts World Championship, with Brookside recording the successful title defence after she threw a handful of powder into Black's eyes and made the cover for the pinfall win.

Bayley is currently absent from WWE TV and hasn't appeared since a post-match attack from Lyra Valkyria at the July 18 edition of Saturday Night's Main Event. It was noted following the event that Bayley "has a decision to make" and that she has not re-signed with WWE.

The expectation is Bayley will have interest from both WWE and AEW, although her WWE deal may not be up until January 2027, if not later, depending on whether or not injury time is added to her current WWE contract.

Bailey did tease a potential AEW All In appearance, sharing a training video which had a backing track of 'All In' by The Grouch & Eligh. According to reports, the social media post did not "land well with everyone" and it was considered "eyebrow-raising" by some backstage within WWE.
