"You have our permission," Williams said, calling the idea "sick." Bayley is known to be a huge fan of the pop-punk band and Williams' solo work.

WrestleMania 37 is currently scheduled to go down in the brand new SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on 28 March 2021, though everything remains up in the air thanks to the ongoing global health crisis. Whether or not the 'Show of Shows' can go down in a building full of fans depends on where society is at with the illness currently sweeping the planet by then. It isn't inconceivable that a vaccine may have been developed by March, though it's unlikely.

Bayley has been SmackDown Women's Champion for 298 days. She won the belt from Charlotte Flair on an October 2019 episode of SD and has since fended off challenges from Nikki Cross, Lacey Evans, Naomi, and more. A collision with current tag partner Sasha Banks looks to be in her future.
