There are long-running WWE feuds, and then there’s Bayley and Michael Cole. Whether a heel or face, the Role Model has been tormenting the voice of WWE for years.
As she explained to our teammate Phil Strum on his Under the Ring podcast, making fun of Cole was something Bayley originally started just to break up awkward silences during WWE’s pandemic era. And it stuck from there, with Bayley rarely passing up any chance she gets to give Cole the business.
That includes while both of them were at WWE World at WrestleMania Thursday in Philadelphia. On the first day of the fan event, Bayley was on hand to take part in the WWE 2K Showdown video game tournament, while Cole was on the job.
Among other things, Cole moderated some Q&A with The Rock. As she posted to social media, Bayley couldn’t resist the chance to call for The Rock to hit Cole with a Rock Bottom.
Still at it all these years later! 😂😂😂

The Rock did not, in fact, Rock Bottom Cole (though he has in the past). He did, however, find the time to turn running a little bit late for his appearance into an opportunity to troll the hometown Philadelphia Eagles, as well as invite a young fan onto the stage as a birthday surprise and treat him to a song you might have heard him sing in “Moana.”
. @TheRock might be the imposing Final Boss at the moment, but that doesn't mean he can't still make a young fan's birthday special at #WWEWorld.
