Bayley is still expected to defend the SmackDown Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 36. However, it’s looking more and more like it won’t be a singles match against Sasha Banks or Naomi, as previous rumors suggested.
According to Alex McCarthy of talkSPORT, there is talk of Bayley defending in a six-pack challenge against Banks, Naomi, Lacey Evans, Carmella, and one other person.
McCarthy noted it won’t likely be Alexa Bliss or Nikki Cross because they are expected to take part in a Women’s Tag Team Championship triple threat bout against The Kabuki Warriors and Beth Phoenix & Natalya.
That sixth spot could go to Dana Brooke considering Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville are wrapped in the Otis/Dolph Ziggler storyline.
I asked if Alexa Bliss was the other, but I’m told Bliss/Cross will challenge Kabuki Warriors in addition to Divas of Doom in a thee-way tag.
Sasha V Bayley was an original plan, but I’m told Sasha’s injury caused them to change course.
