Bayley removed from SummerSlam tryouts graphic amid rumors about her WWE status
As seen at Saturday Night’s Main Event, Lyra Valkyria defeated Bayley in a singles match. During a commercial break on WWE RAW, Lyra referenced the victory in a promo by saying, “I dropped a load of dead weight on Saturday when I ran Bayley out of here.”
WWE NXT General Manager Robert Stone recently shared WWE’s SummerSlam Prospect Tryout VIP Experience graphic with Bayley featured alongside Nattie, Je’Von Evans, and Shawn Michaels. However, On Location’s updated event page now lists Ivy Nile instead of Bayley.
The website states: “Access a private meet & greet with Je’Von Evans, Ivy Nile and Nattie as they stop by to check in on the new wave of prospects!”
The SummerSlam Prospect Tryout VIP Experience is scheduled for July 30th 2026, with packages starting at $395. The experience also includes a Q&A session with Shawn Michaels, WWE coaches, and other Superstars.
Bayley’s removal from the promotional material has added further uncertainty regarding her WWE status and whether she will still be involved with the SummerSlam tryouts.
