Bayley has come a long way from The Hugger persona to the babyface she is today through the lens of the WWE Universe. During her run in NXT back in 2015, she defended the NXT Women's Championship against Nia Jax at The SSE Arena in London. She scored a submission win over The Irresistible Force.
The two are slated to wrestle tonight inside a Steel Cage for a WWE Live Event at The O2 Arena in London, nine years after their title contest for the NXT belt. This time, Nia Jax will defend her Women's Championship against her.
Taking to X/Twitter, The Role Model reflected on her nine-year journey from then to now as she hyped up the upcoming title bout:
"2015 v 2024. London tonight, Steel cage," she wrote.

These two women have been feuding with one another since the summer, especially after Jax brought The Role Model's run to a screeching halt at SummerSlam. Despite repeated attempts at live events and a showdown at Bad Blood, Bayley was unable to reclaim the gold.
Kevin Nash says Bayley is done, and Nia Jax has only one legitimate threat left
During his Kliq This podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash addressed the current situation on Friday Night SmackDown.
The veteran gave the former Women's Champion her flowers but noted that as over as she is, The Role Model's moment has passed for now. As for Nia Jax, Nash feels that Charlotte Flair is the only person who can realistically stand toe-to-toe with her. The Hall of Famer is hoping to see The Queen return sooner rather than later:
"Bayley f*****g can work, and Bayley's over, it's just that... It's not believable. Charlotte Flair, at 5'10, probably is your best bet against [Nia Jax]," Nash said. "I saw Charlotte back at the Performance Center with her knee brace on. She's getting ready to f*****g make a return."
At Crown Jewel this past Saturday, Nia Jax fell to Women's World Champion Liv Morgan, partly thanks to Tiffany Stratton, Dominik Mysterio and Raquel Rodriquez. As a result, Morgan became the inaugural Women's Crown Jewel Champion. How The Irresistible Force retaliates to The Buff Barbie bears watching.
