There’s a possibility that fans could see Mone vs Bayley on the AEW soil later this year, as WrestleVotes recently updated fans about Bayley’s contract situation with WWE. They said that her contract is set to expire towards the end of this year, and an agreement hasn’t been reached yet.
Could this mean Bayley’s leaving? It is certainly a possibility, but as of right now, it’s merely speculation. Fans have been unhappy with Bayley’s treatment in WWE over the years. She’s missed multiple WrestleManias despite being one of the top female wrestlers in the company.
