There’s A Reason Bayley Is Already Pushing For A TNA Run As WWE’s Partnership With The Company Grows

Bayley has expressed interest in competing for TNA Wrestling, citing the company’s Knockouts division as a long-standing career goal — and revealing she actually tried out for the promotion back in 2010.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Bayley said the expanding relationship between WWE and TNA has made the idea feel more realistic than ever.

“You don’t want to just be one thing. There are so many promotions. When you have guys like AJ Styles, Sami Zayn, or Finn Balor, they’ve all been to these places. So I feel like it’s important to mention the past and mention these things. I would love to dip my toes in TNA and AAA. If we have the doors to do that, I would love to go.

“TNA was one of my dreams as a kid. I loved the Knockouts division. They were like the hottest division for so long. Gail Kim’s one of my favorites. I did a tryout for TNA years ago, like 2010 or something. The Knockouts division has always been a dream.”

Bayley has competed on Raw, SmackDown, NXT and AAA in 2026. WWE and TNA have an active partnership, though crossovers have largely involved NXT talent to date.
