ToggleAfter many feared that the veteran female talent Bayley would probably be sitting out of the Wrestlemania 41 card, WWE found her a suitable match for the biggest event of the year. Competing in a title match on the show, she’s now looking forward to becoming a three-time champion with another reigning champion from the current Raw roster.
A new championship match for Wrestlemania 41 was made official following the latest episode of WWE Smackdown. In the opening contest of the April 11 episode of the Friday Night show, Bayley & Women’s Intercontinental Champion Lyra Valkyria won a Gauntlet Match to earn the right to challenge the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez.
Speaking on the suddenly-received title match opportunity at Wrestlemania 41, Bayley and Valkyria reflected their mindsets in a Smackdown-exclusive video. Draped in the shirt of the respective tag-team partners, the duo reflected on their journey to the PLE. Speaking on the gauntlet win, Lyra’s first-time teaming with Bayley, teased an instant chemistry with the Role Model,
“We just ran through the very best that the women’s division has to offer and I’m going to WrestleMania with the Role Model!”

As for Bayley, she reminded that Bayley runs deep as the connection with Lyra runs deep, as she first met her years ago during a WWE fan event. Furthermore, she’s hopeful to capture the tag team gold for the third time, a title via which she had achieved a first-ever accolade,
“I’ve been a tag team champion in the past, I’m the first ever. And I’m a two-time, so if I become a three times the charm, I’m honored to be able to do that with you.”
Bayley and Sasha Banks won the first-ever Elimination Chamber match back in 2019 to become the very first women’s tag team champions in WWE history. Later, they recaptured the title in 2020. That being said, Bayley would capture the title for the third time with Lyra provided they beat Morgan and Rodriguez at Wrestlemania 41.
