10 New Directions For WWE After SummerSlam 2023

10. Bayley Turning On IYO SKY

Sorry in advance, Damage CTRL fans.

IYO SKY cashed in MITB to win the WWE Women's Title at SummerSlam. Then, the teary champ celebrated with her pals Bayley and a returning Dakota Kai. The biggest surprise here wasn't IYO's cash-in; no, it was the fact Bayley and Dakota didn't smash her face in and split the group.

WWE is surely keeping that on ice for TV. They've been teasing friction for the longest time now, and it'd make sense if Shotzi successfully got inside Bayley's head and caused her to lash out at SKY. Jealousy will take over for the so-called leader of the group soon anyway.

IYO vs. Bayley would be a fine scrap for Payback. Alternatively, assuming she's healthy enough to make it happen, some sort of three-way involving Kai (and thus every member of CTRL) would be a fun sprint. After that, who knows? Keeping IYO interesting without weekly promos could be quite the challenge.
