Bayley mentions that she was captivated by the performance of Piper Niven during the Mae Young Classic. She didn’t know Niven before this event but found herself clued to the monitor during Niven’s match. She hopes that she can establish a friendship with Niven if WWE pursues her as a talent in the future.

Speaking about being called up to the main roster, Bayley admits that in a perfect world she would have been called up with Charlotte, Banks and Lynch. Once that didn’t happen, she changed her mindset and was able to really enjoy her time as the leading woman in NXT. She loved helping the trainees there and head trainer, Matt Bloom even allowed her to produce certain matches on occasion.

Bayley admits that when she first transitioned to the main roster she made the mistake of thinking that everyone knew her. It was only after travelling for a while on WWE’s regular schedule that she realized that not everyone knew her from her time in NXT, and she was going to have to work even harder to get herself over to a brand new audience.
