It may not be accurate to say that WWE has completely ruined Bayley, but if that's the case, the truth isn't far off. The woman who was once arguably the top babyface in NXT has been reduced to a beaten ex-champion who's afraid to hurt her opponents and deals out awkward hugs at inopportune times.

Bayley is currently out of title contention after losing to Raw Women's Champion Alexa Bliss, but her rival-turned-friend Sasha Banks will be challenging Bliss for the belt at Great Balls of Fire. WWE seems quite high on Bliss, and sadly, the booking team has never really gotten behind Banks as a long-term champion on the main roster. With that in mind, it's safe to expect Bliss will win.

Could it all come down to a swerve, though? Bayley turning heel and costing Banks the match would be a stunning turn of events and would set up a feud between the two women. Granted, a Bayley turn would be "stunning" because it's such a bad idea, but it probably wouldn't be the worst thing they've done with her.
