She would know. The WWE women’s division has come a long, long way in just a few years and it seems to be continuing to grow. There are a lot of women on the roster now and several of them have been given a chance to get better almost every week. That is a very good thing to see and it turns out that one of the stars has caught both the eye of a network and one of her fellow wrestlers.
With so many names on any given WWE roster, it can be a fight to get significant television time. Therefore, wrestlers need to use their time as well as they can, which is often a lot easier said than done. It can be difficult to get someone’s attention in a short match without much time, but one wrestler seemed to pull it off this week in just over three minutes.
During this week’s Monday Night Raw, Peyton Royce defeated Ruby Riott in a short match. After the match was over, the USA Network Twitter account posted a tweet praising Royce’s performance. Bayley responded, saying that Royce has always been this good. This comes after Bayley and Royce faced off in tag matches for the Women’s Tag Team Titles. As one half of the champions, Bayley is allowed to wrestle on both Monday Night Raw and SmackDown.
Some of the greatest wrestling we've seen yet from @PeytonRoyceWWE! #WWERaw #MustBeMonday

Guys, Peyton has ALWAYS been this good.

It got their attention. Check out the match that got people talking:
Opinion: That’s quite the compliment for Royce as Bayley is one of the bigger stars in the women’s division. Royce isn’t someone who gets to showcase herself very much on her own as she is mainly a tag team wrestler. She has gotten better in recent weeks and that spinning brainbuster is quite the good looking finisher. While she might not be ready just yet, she might be able to become a single star one day.
What did you think of the match? How big of a star can Royce be? Let us know in the comments below.
