Bayley Discusses Her Career Longevity Amidst Rising Women's Talent

In an exclusive chat with Chris Van Vliet during WrestleMania 41 week in Las Vegas, WWE superstar Bayley revealed her thoughts on her wrestling career and her contract situation.

Reflecting on her early inspirations, Bayley recalled how icons like Trish Stratus and Lita shaped her perception of women in wrestling.

Personally, I'm proud to still be in the spotlight, doing red carpets and headlining events. It's empowering to realize that we still matter immensely to the fans," she added.
