WWE's desire to push Bayley as a heel who doesn't think she's a bad person is fun, but it's been handled clumsily so far. When she went rogue, Bayley badly needed to reflect some sort of change and evolve into a new version of her otherwise sweet and polite side-pony-wearing character. She hasn't, and that's worrying.

On the other side of the ring, Charlotte Flair is also a heel. Who exactly are fans supposed to root for here? Maybe North Carolina will make everyone's minds up for them by cheering the hometown gal Flair and shunning Bayley's still-stuttering SmackDown Women's Title reign.

Sunday is the perfect time for Bayley to heap on some heat and cheat like a scumbag to retain her title.

Fans in the arena won't appreciate her stealing one when Charlotte has the chance to become a 10-time Women's Champion, and it'd finally give Bayley some much-needed ruthlessness between the ropes in big-time title matches. She, quite literally, needs to let her hair down more often as a performer.
