10 WWE Villains With Understandable Motives

You can only push someone for so long before they push back.

As well as being a plot point in the recent Joker movie, this also applied to Bayley's recent change in attitude.

After years of crappy treatment, subpar billing - compared to her fellow horsewomen - and even being distanced from her tag partner, Sasha Banks, Bayley found herself with the SmackDown Women's title around her waist - cashing in her Money in the Bank briefcase on the same night she won it.

Surely now she would receive that well earned spotlight?

Yet, it wasn't to be.

Her feuds were overshadowed by whatever Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch and Banks were doing.

Then, after being shunted again as a credible face of the division, Bayley snapped following a tag match pitting the Raw and SmackDown Women's Champions (Lynch and Bayley) against the Women's Tag Team Champions (Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross) beating her partner to a pulp with a steel chair.

After losing her title to Charlotte Flair at Hell in a Cell, Bayley would banish her 'hugging' persona and cut down her Bayley Buddies (along with her hair) on SmackDown. Then - after winning her title back on the same show - she would tell the fans in attendance to 'screw' themselves.

Her belittling and puppy dog days seemed to be over. Bayley finally seized control of her persona and severed all responsibility to those who once stood by and watched her suffer. She now looks set to do whatever she can to keep the rest of the division in check.
