The COVID-19 pandemic took over the entire world since last year and since then WWE had to produce content in front of no live audience.
Bayley was not used to performing with no live crowd but it seems John Cena helped change her perspective. Bayley recently spoke on the latest episode of Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette, where she revealed that John Cena helped her.
“On the first day, I remember talking to Daniel Bryan, and [John] Cena was there. They were having a conversation and Cena was like, ‘I’ve done everything, but I haven’t done this. I haven’t been in a WWE ring on TV with zero fans. It’s a good challenge and will be something new for me to learn.’ That instantly changed my whole mindset. If we can do this, we can do anything. I went into that mindset of ‘we have to prove we can do this without fans and prove our characters…’ that we don’t have to lean on that, even though our shows are 90% fan interaction. I’m really lucky to have Sasha with me because I could play off her.”
