Bayley Reveals Why She Started Her Own Training School — And Which Legend Helped Her

In a move that solidifies her legacy as a true locker room leader, WWE superstar Bayley has officially launched “Lodestone,” a new training initiative designed to mentor the next generation of female talent. Late last year, the Grand Slam Champion ran her first-ever three-day seminar, which featured an entirely female cohort of wrestlers. The event was a massive success, highlighted by a guest appearance from John Cena, who reportedly spent eight hours offering advice and guidance to the attendees. Now, the first vlog documenting the experience has been released, giving fans insight into Bayley’s passion for teaching.

Bayley Discusses The Importance Of Lodestone For WWE Women

Speaking in the newly released video, Bayley explained that the creation of Lodestone came from a desire to reinvest her experience back into the business. She noted that teaching isn’t just about helping others; it is a vital part of her own growth as a performer. “I think creating Lodestone right now in my career was important because, when you teach, you learn, and when you teach, you grow,” she said. She drew parallels to her time as the NXT Women’s Champion, where she first began helping rookies with basic mechanics, realizing that articulating the craft made her a better wrestler in the process.

John Cena And The Responsibility Of Leadership

With a career that has spanned different eras of the women’s evolution, Bayley feels a responsibility to share the wealth of knowledge she has accumulated. She emphasized that hoarding her experience would be a waste, especially when she knows how isolating the journey can feel for young talent. “I have this career now where I have done all these things… I can either just keep it all to myself and try to keep getting to the top, or, as I’m still getting to the top and still accomplishing goals, share what my journey is like,” she explained. With heavy hitters like John Cena lending their time to her project, Bayley’s Lodestone is quickly becoming a pivotal resource for the future of women’s wrestling.
