Bayley

NXT Diva Bayley has had a love affair with wrestling since she was an 11-year-old girl. An admitted superfan, this bashful NXT Diva is full of talent and enthusiasm. At age 18, Bayley began training for her eventual pathway to NXT. With a background in sports such as track, basketball and martial arts, along with a love for juggling and pogo sticking, it seems the world of WWE was a natural fit. 

Prior to joining the ranks of NXT, the California-born Diva competed for some of the most respected independent wrestling organizations in the United States and Canada. To this day, Bayley admits to still experiencing the excitement she felt as a young girl whenever she steps into the ring. It’s a sentiment she hopes to share with the WWE and NXT Universe for years to come.

Bayley competed in a Fatal 4-Way Match involving titleholder Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch at NXT TakeOver: Rival, which was won by Sasha Banks, who captured the NXT Women's Championship.

Weeks later, Bayley received unwelcome advice from former NXT-turned-WWE Diva Emma, who said Bayley was too kind and fun-loving for her own good. Emma suggested Bayley stop listening to the NXT Universe and even went so far as to slap the huggable Diva in the face.

On the April 1 edition of NXT, Bayley showed Emma she has what it takes to succeed, one-upping the dancing Diva in a pivotal singles contest.
