Backstage Update on Bayley’s WWE Contract & Current Abscense – Internal WWE Reaction To Bayley’s Training Video Teasing AEW All In Appearance

Bayley has been absent from WWE since her loss to Lyra Valkyria and post-match attack at this past July’s WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event show in New York City, New York. Bayley’s contract with WWE is currently set to expire at the end of this year. Bayley recently posted a video on Instagram of her training that featured a song titled “All In” which quickly led to online speculation of her potentially leaving WWE for AEW and debuting at this month’s All In 2026 event.

WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select reported that their sources stated that there is no new information regarding Bayley’s contract status with WWE.

Those spoken to reportedly stated that Bayley’s social media video did not “land well with everyone” within WWE. It was reported that Bayley’s video containing highlights of her training at different locations with different wrestlers, including Mercedes Mone, was viewed by some backstage as being “eyebrow-raising.”
