Fans haven’t seen the moment when Bayley chopped off her famous hair, but WWE cameras very well could have been around to record it. They film everything they can, after all. Bayley will always remember that day and the shock of losing her famous ponytail.
While speaking to the Detroit News, Bayley discussed her voyage into a heel persona. She admitted that she was “a little in shock” when that ponytail first got cut. Then Bayley took on a hairstyle that is way shorter than she’s had it since she was a little girl.
“It felt great. I knew what I wanted to do and I knew what I needed to do. But the actual snip of the ponytail, I was a little in shock. My hair was the longest I’ve ever had it, and I’ve had that freakin’ ponytail for seven years. The last time my hair was this short, I was 10 years old.”
Bayley capped off her heel turn in a big way by murdering her Bayley Buddies just in case the shorter hair wasn’t a good enough clue. She seems to be having a good time being a heel now, especially as SmackDown Women’s Champion.
