Mercedes Mone has intensified speculation surrounding a potential departure by Bayley, a longtime WWE star, after reportedly signing a multi‑year contract in late 2023 that may soon expire.
Mone recently posted a match graphic for this year’s WrestleDream, pitting her against Bayley and Davina Rose in a scheduled bout for October 2026, sparking widespread discussion, including accusations of contract tampering, while maintaining the conversation.
Mercedes Mone Fuels Speculation on Bayley’s Possible Move to AEW
Mone recently shared an hourglass GIF on X shortly after Bayley appeared on RAW in a segment with Lyra Valkyria. While Bayley’s matchup with Valkyria is confirmed for Saturday Night’s Main Event this weekend, rumors about Bayley’s potential exit remain active, and Mercedes is eager to fuel the discussion.
There has been no official announcement regarding the expiration date of Bayley’s WWE contract, but given that her previous agreement was signed in late 2023, an October transfer to AEW is plausible. This remains unverified, and further clarification is awaited.
