June 10, 2025 — Los Angeles, CA
The wrestling world has been rocked by shocking news this morning as WWE Superstar Bayley, real name Pamela Martinez, was involved in a devastating car accident late Monday night. The incident, which occurred just outside Los Angeles, has left the multi-time women’s champion with multiple injuries, including a shattered arm and several fractures throughout her body, according to early medical reports.
Emergency services responded swiftly to the scene around 11:45 p.m. PST after receiving 911 calls from bystanders who witnessed the crash. According to authorities, Bayley’s vehicle was struck by another car that had reportedly run a red light at high speed. The impact sent her SUV skidding across the intersection before crashing into a guardrail and flipping over.
Paramedics extricated Bayley from the wreckage using the jaws of life and rushed her to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she was admitted in critical but stable condition. Sources close to WWE confirm she has undergone emergency surgery on her right arm, which was “completely shattered” in the impact. Additional scans have revealed multiple fractures in her ribs, pelvis, and left leg.
“She’s lucky to be alive,” said a first responder on the scene. “The crash was one of the worst I’ve seen in recent months. It’s a miracle she didn’t suffer any brain or spinal injuries.”
Bayley’s family has requested privacy at this time but issued a short statement through WWE:
> “We are grateful for the outpouring of love and concern. Bayley is currently receiving the best possible medical care. She is strong, resilient, and in good spirits, despite the pain. We ask for continued prayers as she begins what will be a long road to recovery.”
The wrestling community has already flooded social media with messages of support. WWE Superstars including Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Bianca Belair have taken to X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram to send love and strength to their friend and colleague.
> “Sending all my love to Bayley right now,” wrote Becky Lynch. “You’re the toughest woman I know. We’ll be waiting for you when you’re ready to come back.”
Fans, too, have been using the hashtag #PrayForBayley, which quickly began trending within hours of the news breaking. Many have shared photos, video clips, and heartfelt messages celebrating Bayley’s in-ring achievements and her impact on women’s wrestling.
Bayley, a former NXT Champion, Raw and SmackDown Women’s Champion, and Grand Slam winner, was reportedly scheduled to be a major part of WWE’s summer storyline buildup. Insiders say her current feud on SmackDown had been gaining momentum, and plans were in place for a major match at SummerSlam.
While WWE has not made an official announcement regarding her future status, it’s widely expected that Bayley will be out of action for several months, if not longer.
> “This is going to take time,” said an orthopedic specialist not involved in her care. “A shattered arm and multiple fractures are serious injuries that require physical therapy, rest, and possibly additional surgeries. A full recovery is possible, but athletes must be patient.”
As news continues to develop, WWE has promised to keep fans updated on Bayley’s condition and next steps in her recovery. For now, the priority remains her health and well-being.
From fans around the world to those closest to her in WWE, one message is clear: Bayley, you’re not alone. The entire
wrestling universe is behind you.
