Bayley is seemingly back in the good graces of Damage CTRL.
Bayley has somewhat been at odds with her Damage CTRL stablemates Dakota Kai, IYO SKY, Kairi Sane, and Asuka in recent weeks, especially after she took the pin in the Women's WarGames Match at WWE Survivor Series. The group told her to stay backstage for Sane's match against Bianca Belair on the December 1 episode of WWE SmackDown. Bayley interfered anyway but it backfired, as Belair scored the win.
On the December 8 episode of WWE SmackDown, Damage CTRL once again told Bayley to stay backstage. She didn't listen, as she interfered in Asuka's match against Charlotte Flair. This time, her involvement paid off, as Asuka scored the win.
One thing you can say about @itsBayleyWWE... she's loyal. @WWEAsuka is going to remember that. --

In a SmackDown Exclusive, Bayley apologized to her teammates after the match and said she wanted what was best for Damage CTRL. Asuka replied and said that Charlotte was not ready for Bayley. Asuka then hugged Bayley, and the group hugged together. Kai encouraged Bayley, who was clearly happy with the response. Bayley then said they were a team, and the rest of Damage CTRL seemingly agreed.
