As noted earlier, Bayley is out of action for nine months due to an ACL tear. The injury happened on Thursday while training at the Performance Center.
As a result of the injury, WWE set up a segment with Sonya Deville to announce her replacement against SmackDown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair at the Money In The Bank pay-per-view that happens a week from Sunday.
Deville said that Belair will not defend the title at the pay-per-view but she will defend it next week on SmackDown in Houston, TX against Carmella. Liv Morgan took issue with this announcement because once again someone was appointed ahead of her.
Deville then announced that she was about to announce that Morgan would be inserted into the Money in the Bank match at the pay-per-view.
