WWE wrestler Bayley will be sidelined for approximately nine months due to an injury, the company announced Friday.
The promotion said that Bayley (real name Pamela Martinez, 32) was injured while training. She had been scheduled to face SmackDown women’s champion Bianca Belair in an “I Quit” match at the upcoming Money in the Bank pay-per-view. Belair’s new opponent will be announced Friday night on SmackDown, WWE said.
Bayley and Belair had been engaged in a months-long feud that began just after Belair won the title at WrestleMania in April.
