WWE veteran takes massive shots at Bayley's talent (Exclusive)

WWE star Bayley has recently been teasing a character change that could help reinvigorate her run in the company. However, wrestling veteran Vince Russo is not entirely convinced she can pull off a complex character.

Bayley has had phases of massive popularity among fans, but Russo believes she is not very adept at cutting promos. The new character she's teasing seems to strike a balance between a heel and a babyface, although her recent post points to her choosing the dark side.

According to Vince Russo on Writing with Russo, The Role Model will have to use all the skills at her disposal to be able to pull off the character change.

Russo also recalled the infamous promo segment involving Alexa Bliss and Bayley on RAW in 2017, where the latter was buried in a rather poorly written manner. He said:

"If she's gonna have a split personality and she has got the devil on one shoulder and the angel on the other shoulder, she has got to be able to pull that off. And I don't think she has ever been able to cut a promo. I, God, I always remember the Bayley this is your life, how horrible that was."

The WWE Superstar recently addressed her feud with Lyra Valkyria

Bayley appears to be confused about her rivalry with Lyra, even saying she never wanted to fight her.

In a recent Instagram post, the WWE star showed her conflicted state of mind and stated:

"I don't even know what the next step is. I don't know what good this has done, or if it has done anything at all, but all I know is that the last person I wanted to hurt was Lyra, and I've hurt a lot of people in the past where they mostly deserved it [evil laugh], but they found it in their heart to forgive me because I am a good person. So, maybe, maybe, I just don't know how Lyra can find it in herself to forgive me when I can't even forgive myself," she said.

Only time will tell what is next for The Role Model down the line in WWE.

He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former.
