Bayley recently spoke with Metro UK for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.

During the discussion with the popular UK-based media outlet, the former WWE grand slam champion spoke about wanting to have a match against Michael Cole, being interested to see how crowds react when they return and how she has had some of the most fun matches of her career during the “ThunderDome Era” in WWE.

Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where she touches on these topics and more.

On why she wants a match with Michael Cole: “I don’t know if people realize it or they think I’m doing it just for fun – which it is fun, to give Cole crap. But I can literally hear them! They’re 10 feet away from me in an empty arena, so I can hear everything he’s saying, so it just felt fitting to respond to it. Why not?”

On being interested to see how crowds react when they return: “I’m interested to see how they react to me when I come back. I just feel so grateful that [WWE] gave me the opportunity to show a different side to me and show that I can be so much more. I’ve been having the best time!”

On the ‘ThunderDome Era’ being a time period where she had some of the most fun matches: “This is definitely some of the most fun matches and moments and stories that I’ve been in my career. It hasn’t even been in front of actual fans! So I can’t wait to get in front of fans and be able to share that with them.”
