Bayley Destroys Bayley Buddies, Wins SmackDown Women's Championship

Bayley's gone to the dark side for real this time and her Bayley Buddies are the first to go down.

Right before her SmackDown Women's Championship match against Charlotte in the main event of SmackDown, Bayley unleashed the wacky, inflatable, arm-waving tube men known as the Bayley Buddies. Instead of Bayley, heading towards the ring, she stopped her music, stepped back and popped every single one of the inflatable companions.

This new attitude did result in Bayley being able to win back the SmackDown Women's Championship that she lost at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view event earlier in the month.

After the match, Bayley cut a short promo before SmackDown went on the air and simply said, “Hey bitches, screw all of you.”

The title change capped off the first night of the WWE Draft with the second and final night taking place on October 14 during Raw. To follow along which wrestler goes to which stable, check out Fightful’s Draft Tracker here.
