WWE Rumor Roundup: Soon-to-return superstar behind Bayley's heel turn, NXT star forced to retire and more – 3rd September 2019

Shock reason behind Bayley's heel turn

Bayley turns heel

When Sasha Banks returned as a heel, no one was surprised. It was obvious that she was a top heel in the women's division and WWE needed to use her well.

However, Bayley becoming a heel was not seen coming by the WWE Universe and everyone was left truly shocked when she attacked Becky Lynch at the end of Monday Night RAW.

Cageside Seats now report that the reason behind the heel turn could be Liv Morgan! They report:

Bayley’s actions from last night’s Raw triggered speculation about Liv Morgan being pushed as a face challenger on SmackDown, and that there’s a long term plan in place to split the NXT Horsewomen for a big reunion moment down the road.

The former Riott Squad member is on a break and will be returning with a new gimmick. The plan is to reportedly have Liv straight into the title picture as a face against Bayley as the heel.
