Popular WWE Star Says Faction Wouldn’t Exist Without Triple H In Charge

WWE

WWE star Bayley had opened up about her Damage CTRL faction, and how Triple H taking over creative affected her booking.

Triple H became the head of WWE creative following Vince McMahon’s retirement announcement on July 23, 2022.

A week later, Bayley made her WWE return at the July 30 SummerSlam event, following over a year out of action due to injury.

Bayley didn’t make her comeback on her own, with the Role Model forming an alliance with IYO SKY and Dakota Kai.

Speaking with Ariel Helwani for BT Sport, Bayley was asked if Damage CTRL would exist without Triple H taking over creative.

Bayley replied:

“No. Not even close. I didn’t know any ideas that they had for me (when she came back from her injury).

“Even if I asked creative, they weren’t really sure because they were waiting until I was 100% clear, so I had no idea what I was doing.

“To me, I feel like I would have just fallen back into the same place that I was. Not that that’s a bad thing, because I didn’t get to do anything with the fans, you know.

“So it is still all being new to me and I would have turned it up a million. But this, to me, is what I wanted and what I needed, even in my career, not just to help IYO and Dakota and the division.

“To me, it just adds another layer and another piece of evolution to my character and to show a different side of me.”

Bayley also named a released star she originally wanted in the WWE faction, which you can read more about right here.
