WWE Star Urges Bayley To Stop Accepting Disrespect

A WWE star urges Bayley to stop accepting the disrespect and to demand the respect she deserves for her influence on the women’s division.

2025 has been a tough year for Bayley, as she missed out on being part of both WrestleMania 41 and SummerSlam.

This legitimate turmoil is something that has kind of become part of Bayley‘s storyline on WWE Raw in recent months, as she’s often torn between her usual happy self and a much more frustrated, violent side.

In a new video on her KanaChan TV YouTube channel, Asuka has sent a message to Bayley and has urged her to stop accepting the disrespect.

On WWE Raw recently, Asuka extended the offer of an alliance to Bayley – something Bayley rejected after Asuka had previously turned on her with the rest of Damage CTRL back in 2024.

Asuka’s message to Bayley today was as follows:

“An interview with Bayley came up on my X feed. I just found out about her sadness, her struggle, and her pain. And it hit me. I remembered.

“The format of today’s women’s division – the value everyone treats as standard – that was built by the Four Horsewomen and by me.

“We’ve got pride. Of course we do. But at the same time, we are caught in something complicated – torn between the pride of what we built and the responsibility of what comes next.

“And right now, the ones who can understand Bayley’s pain the most are probably Charlotte, Becky and me. Our era didn’t just raise the level. We flipped the entire idea of what a women’s division could be. We started a revolution. Walking a road is one thing. Carving that road out of stone? That’s a different kind of fight.

“Bayley, when you and I first met, you were the NXT Champion, and I was the challenger. And I took the title from you and I carried NXT on my back. Then you went to the main roster, and you became one of the pillars there too.

“After that, I arrived. We fought at the top. We survived at the top. We became the standard of the company. We are not just wrestlers. We are an era. We changed the division. We created it. We held it up when nobody else could.

“You’re accepting treatment that doesn’t match what you are. Don’t swallow it. This isn’t only your problem. It’s an insult to our pride – the pride of everyone who fought beside you and against you. It’s an insult to the status we built with our own hands.

“As someone who has shared that time with you, I can’t accept it. Bayley. Stop playing nice. Look at Kairi. Playing nice is boring. Playing safe is boring.

“Go off! Shout it. ‘Do you know who I am? I’m Bayley!’ Make them remember what you’ve done – what we’ve done. We changed this division. We made it.

“People are simple. They mistake what they see right now for what has always existed, as if the whole story started yesterday.

“So remind them. Loudly. All of them. Get louder. Get sharper. Let that fire show in the ring. And make them feel it. The weight we built with our lives. The pain we paid to make this division what it is. Right now. Make them remember.”
