Bayley shared her frustration on social media after not being able to make it to the SummerSlam card so far. The former SmackDown Women's Champion is not happy with how things are unfolding heading into The Biggest Party of The Summer and made sure to let her feelings be known.

Popular rapper Cardi B is set to be the host for WWE's first-ever two-night SummerSlam Premium Live Event. Ahead of the show, the singer has been engaging in online banter with a few stars from WWE's women's division.

Last week, responding to a tweet from Triple H about seeing who would step up to Cardi B at SummerSlam, Bayley said that she was free. However, the rapper didn't entertain this idea, and on Friday asked WWE's CCO to "leave her at home."

Now, following SmackDown, the former WWE Women's Champion has responded to this tweet with a message, expressing her unhappiness at not being at the PLE in New Jersey on August 2 and 3.

"Well you can thank Lyra ValKickmewhenimdownwhydontyou for this CARDI!!!!!!!!" she wrote.

On the July 14 edition of RAW, Lyra Valkyria beat the former Women's Royal Rumble winner in a hard-fought two-out-of-three falls match to earn a shot at Becky Lynch's Women's Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam.

As such, The Role Model doesn't seem overly joyed at missing out on the PLE. It remains to be seen whether WWE puts her on the show with one week to go.


Bayley teased a heel turn after SmackDown

Following this week's edition of SmackDown, Bayley competed in a dark match against Lyra Valkyria.

Coming out for the match, the veteran took the mic and expressed her frustrations for not being a part of SummerSlam and blamed her absence on Lyra.

Lyra went on to beat her in the match, which also saw Bayley attempt a pinfall by getting her feet on the ropes.

As things stand, The Role Model is set to miss SummerSlam, after missing out on competing at WrestleMania this year as well.

About the author

Sherjeel Malik

Sherjeel Malik is a writer at Sportskeeda and covers pro wrestling. He was hooked on the product from the moment he saw The Hardy Boyz jumping off ladders during the Attitude Era. While he comes from an engineering background, Sherjeel’s love for pro wrestling and content writing led him to pursue a career in sports journalism. Before assuming his current role at Sportskeeda, Sherjeel worked at other reputable organizations for five years.

While writing articles, he ensures that he only relies on credible sources for information and covers relevant subjects that do not project an agenda against a particular person or association. WWE legend Paul Heyman once shared Sherjeel’s work on his social media handle.

Sherjeel’s earliest memory of pro wrestling is watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker square off for the WWE Title in the main event of a pay-per-view in 1998. His favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy. While he admires Orton for his character work as a heel, he looks up to Jeff because of his unique wrestling style and risk-taking ability.

If he could go back to the Attitude Era, Sherjeel would like to manage Ken Shamrock and be his mouthpiece. He feels Shamrock’s promo skills prevented him from becoming a main event-level act in WWE. Hence, he would like to help the UFC Hall of Famer get over with fans.

When not writing about pro wrestling, he likes to read classics and fiction books.
