Bayley, a former multi-time Women’s Champion, recently discussed the turning point in her WWE career: her 2019 heel turn. Known for her bright, crowd-friendly image during her early years, she realized the need for a change after a lengthy babyface run.

Her transformation into “The Role Model” brought an edge fans hadn’t seen before. She redefined herself as a serious competitor by cutting ties with her previous persona. Bayley said about the decision, “I needed something different to keep my career going. The change allowed me to adapt and stay fresh.”

Her recent triple-threat victory on SmackDown demonstrates how her bold choice in 2019 continues to pay off, keeping her among WWE’s most compelling talents.
