Guys, Peyton has ALWAYS been this good.

Apart from being the SmackDown Women’s Champion, Bayley is also the current Women’s tag team champion alongside Sasha Banks. Banks and Bayley were also the first ever Women’s Tag team Champions before dropping the belt to Peyton Royce and Billy Kay at last year’s Wrestlemania.
Rumours were prevalent that the time that the two tag teams did not get along. Many reports suggested that Banks and Bayley were upset with having to drop the title so soon into their reign. However, a picture of the 4 after the match shows them all smiling together.
Regardless, any talk of bad blood should now be a thing of the past following the public backing of Royce by Bayley who is supposed to be a bad guy on WWE television.
