New Details Emerge On Bayley’s WWE Status As AEW Speculation Grows Wrestling News Source – Latest WWE, AEW, Pro Wrestling News, AEW All In: London 2026 Results

Bayley’s future with WWE appears to remain unresolved, with a new report suggesting the former Women’s Champion has yet to commit to a new deal with the company.

Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez discussed Bayley’s current status during the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, with Meltzer stating that she has a significant decision to make regarding the next stage of her career.

Bayley has been absent from WWE television since losing to Lyra Valkyria during the July 18 edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event at Madison Square Garden. Her most recent match took place at a WWE live event in Bakersfield, California on July 26.

According to Meltzer, Bayley has not yet put pen to paper on another WWE contract.

“The only thing I heard from them when it comes to Bayley is that Bayley has a decision to make. So that’s the story. Bayley has a decision to make. She has not signed a contract.”

Meltzer suggested WWE may be waiting for Bayley to make her decision before moving ahead with any potential television storyline involving her.

“When she signs a contract, I’m sure she’ll be back on TV. If she doesn’t sign, I think they’re doing the same thing with that that Tony does, or has done. He doesn’t always do it and they don’t always do it. But I think the situation with her is if she signs a contract, she’ll probably come back and attack Lyra, and that’ll be her storyline. And if she doesn’t sign, then she doesn’t come back and the Madison Square Garden thing was her write-off.”

If that scenario proves accurate, Bayley’s Madison Square Garden match could potentially serve as her final televised WWE appearance should the two sides fail to reach an agreement.

Mercedes Moné Fuels Talk Of A Possible AEW Move

The uncertainty has inevitably resulted in speculation about what Bayley could do outside WWE, particularly with AEW.

Bayley added some fuel to that conversation with an Instagram training video on Monday. The clip featured a song titled “All In,” while Bayley accompanied the post with the caption, “All or Nothing, baby.”

Given AEW’s association with the All In name, some fans interpreted the choice as a possible tease. There has been no confirmation, however, that Bayley’s post was intended as a reference to AEW.

Mercedes Moné has also played into the speculation surrounding her longtime friend and rival.

Moné recently shared a fan-created match graphic depicting herself against Bayley at AEW WrestleDream, immediately prompting further discussion about the possibility of the two eventually renewing their rivalry outside WWE.

Bayley herself has recently appeared reflective about her career. In a mini-documentary covering her Saturday Night’s Main Event match against Valkyria, she spoke about reconsidering her position and value within professional wrestling.

“I feel like I’m taking a further look back at everything, or seeing it from a different view, and knowing my place in this business, and knowing my worth in this business.”
