Would anybody be proper shocked if Bayley finally turned on IYO and cost her the Women's Title at Crown Jewel? WWE is going to get to this Damage CTRL split eventually. It's a matter of time, folks. Trips could be thinking Bianca on top as champ as then a non-title rivalry between SKY and Bayley is his best bet.

Admittedly, this has been brewing for a good while, but...is it honestly necessary? It wouldn't even make sense if the announcers claimed Bayley was jealous of IYO. What does she have to be jealous of? Bayley has held multiple championships, and it isn't like SKY is exactly taunting her.

This plot point could be tricky.

There's a nagging thought at the back of this writer's head though. He can see Bayley vindictively costing IYO her belt, then trying to turn Dakota Kai against SKY as well before kicking both out of CTRL and warring with them. The problem? WWE needs good reason to do that.
