WWE’s Damage CTRL, led by Bayley, is gearing up for WarGames at Survivor Series, where they will face Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, and Shotzi. However, a recent tease by Bayley on her Instagram story has fueled speculation about the possible addition of Mercedes Mone to her stable.
Mercedes Mone and Trinity Fatu left WWE in May 2022 due to creative differences, leading to the end of Sasha Banks and Naomi as a tag team. While Mone is currently recovering from an injury and is under contract with NJPW, there have been rumors about her potential return to WWE or even a move to AEW.
Bayley’s Instagram story featured a throwback photo with Kairi Sane, Asuka, and Mercedes Mone, and her caption, “I’ve always got a plan,” has sparked discussions among fans. The post has fueled speculation about Mone’s potential return to WWE and a reunion with Bayley, who had notable matches both against and alongside Mone during their time in WWE, including holding the Women’s Tag Team Titles together.
In recent months, WWE has been dropping subtle hints and references to CM Punk in their programming. The USA Network has also joined in, alluding to the possibility of Punk’s return a couple of times. Living Colour’s “Cult of Personality” has been CM Punk’s anthem for over a decade, both during his WWE days and in his current stint with AEW. Interestingly, Living Colour released a freshly remastered version of the song this week, just in time for Survivor Series. The timing has sparked speculation and excitement among fans about the potential return or involvement of CM Punk in WWE’s upcoming events.
