Bishop Dyer comments on Bayley missing WrestleMania.
Just 24 hours before the match, Bayley was pulled from WrestleMania 41 after suffering an "injury" in a backstage attack. She was set to team with Lyra Valkyria in a match against Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.
A returning Becky Lynch ended up taking Bayley's spot in the match. Lynch and Valkyria went on to win the Women's Tag Team Championships from Morgan and Rodriguez before dropping them back to the duo the following night.
On a recent episode of Busted Open Radio, the former Baron Corbin criticized WWE's decision to pull Bayley from the match.
"I've had a few days to kind of calm down because it made me extremely angry... Fuck you, that's my sentiment. I mean, to do it to Bayley of all people. Someone who's been there through COVID...has made lemonade out of dogshit repeatedly...is a model fucking employee. I don't give a shit if she knew the storyline [ahead of time]. Please, do all this, take all these bumps, work your ass off, and two days before we're gonna replace you...And I know Bayley's going to be fine...but that is a moment and it is bullshit all the way through. She didn't get to be on WrestleMania. She went down to NXT, elevated talent...does everything you've asked of her... Bayley deserved to be on WrestleMania...It is insane to me that you take that moment away."
