Bayley has been officially written off WWE programming following WrestleMania 41.

WWE commentator Michael Cole announced during the Raw after WrestleMania that Bayley suffered a partial shoulder dislocation and anterior labrum tear during the backstage attack on the WrestleMania 41 night one pre-show. Bayley was discovered laid out backstage on the pre-show, with it being announced moments later that she would miss WrestleMania and Lyra Valkyria had 24 hours to find a new partner.

Valkyria ended up teaming with the returning Becky Lynch at WrestleMania, with the two talents winning the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles on night two of WrestleMania 41. They have already lost the belts back to Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, however, as Valkyria was pinned on Raw. Lynch then turned heel on Valkyria post-match, which will lead to speculation that Becky was Bayley's attacker at WrestleMania.

Despite Bayley being written off WWE TV, she isn't dealing with a legitimate injury and the angle leading to her being replaced by Becky Lynch had been planned for several weeks.
