Bayley Returns With Io Shirai And Dakota Kai At Summer Slam 2022

Tonight on WWE Summer Slam 2022, The EST Bianca Belair successfully defended her Raw Women's Championship against The Man Becky Lynch. After the match, both showed respect to each other with a shake hand. 

But Binaca Belair's celebrations was interrupted by the returning Grand Slam Champion Bayley, who hasn’t been around for a year, but she’s been using her time off to do more than rehab from a torn ACL.

Bayley doesn't came alone. She brought Io Shirai and Dakota Kai with her. First up was Dakota Kai, who commentary reminded us was released from NXT earlier this year. And Kai was joined by former NXT Women’s champion Io Shirai. Bayley, Dakota Kai and Io Shirai had a stare down with Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch.
