Bayley faced off against Nia Jax and Charlotte made her way out to the commentary booth to watch the match.
During the match Nia Jax was standing on the middle turnbuckle in the corner while Bayley was on the mat and then Sasha Banks’ music hit. Bayley took advantage of the distraction by hitting Nia Jax with the Belly to Bayley from the middle rope to secure a victory. Bayley will now go on to challenge Charlotte for the title at the Royal Rumble on January 29.
