Bayley revealed why Paramore wasn’t able to play her out at WrestleMania 40.
The band are the former Women’s Champion’s favourite band and before her WrestleMania outing, she made it known that it was her dream to have them play her out at the Show of Shows.
Speaking to Digital Spy back in April the Role Model stated that Paramore performing while she entered the ring was her “WrestleMania moment”.
“They’ve been my favourite band since I was like 15 so I would love it, it would be such a huge honour for them to play. I’ve met Hayley twice and I think she’s the coolest person ever,” she said.
“So I just need this to happen because that’s my Mania moment! I don’t care about anything else after that. I’m just kidding but it just would make everything more special.”
Unfortunately for Bayley, the band could not fit a WrestleMania performance into their schedule but allowed the company to use their sing “Simmer” as part of the video package for her match with IYO SKY.
Why Weren’t Paramore Able To Play Bayley To The Ring At WWE WrestleMania
“We were in talks,” Bayley revealed. “The company did reach out to them. I went the extra mile because I said, ‘I need to know. I need to hear it myself.’ Talked to their management team and everything. It just didn’t work out.
“They are on the Eras Tour with Taylor Swift. The timing for that just didn’t work out. We’re going to get it. I swear. I put it out there. I’ve been putting it out there for years. We kind of know-ish each other, so we’re going to get it.”
H/T: Fightful
Despite not having her favourite band play live at WrestleMania, Bayley beat SKY and became the Women’s Champion in Philadelphia. She would hold it for 188 days before losing to Nia Jax at SummerSlam on August 5th.
Recently, Bayley spoke about the possibility of the “Bayley Buddies” making a return.
In a separate interview, the former Women’s Champion named Rey Mysterio as a dream tag team partner.
