WWE
On last night’s episode of Monday Night Raw, Bayley made her return to television after being away since her loss to Lyra Valkyria at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Madison Square Garden.
With Bayley sticking around in the company, at least for the time being, there are a number of different avenues we could see her character go down.
One of those would see her find a new tag team partner to fight off Lyra, with several intriguing options on the table.
Here are some potential new WWE tag team partners for Bayley.
AJ Lee
AJ Lee and Bayley faced off for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship on Raw back in March
Having been off WWE television since WrestleMania 42, AJ Lee has noted that she isn’t done with the company.
AJ and Bayley’s friendship has been spoken about on WWE television, including for their match together on WWE Raw back in March for the Intercontinental Championship.
With the two being legitimate best friends off screen, them teaming together would make for a great pairing who would instantly have great chemistry.
IYO SKY
Another women’s wrestler currently not up to much on WWE television is IYO SKY.
Arguably WWE’s best wrestler in 2025, 2026 has been a very uneventful year for IYO as she continues to be a background player on Raw.
WWE never picked back up with Bayley and IYO’s story coming out of WrestleMania XL, with a lot of history between the two still unexplored.
Bayley and IYO coming back together would be a good choice for both right now.
Roxanne Perez
Back in 2025, Bayley made the trip down to NXT to start a program with Roxanne Perez, a woman who has cited Bayley as an inspiration in the past.
However, since Roxanne moved up to the main roster, her and Bayley have only interacted in tag team matches and are yet to finish off the singles feud they started last year prior to Roxanne’s call up.
Bayley and Roxanne feuding would help put some singles spotlight on Roxanne as she continues to become the third wheel behind Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, who both hold championship gold.
At the end of the rivalry, Bayley helping pull Roxanne out of the Judgment Day to form a student and teacher partnership would be a nice way to further help build Roxanne up.
