She wrote “15 years!!!!!!!!! Thank you @BTWrestlingCA”. Even the 33-year-old star could not comprehend the fact that she had her first match 15 years ago. She also thanked the promotion where it all began for her. Big Time Wrestling was run by Kirk White, who happened to be a controversial promoter. The promotion was based in Northern California.
She made her entry into the ring in 2009, but her entry into the WWE is something worth knowing about.
Bayley successfully navigates her way through an illustrious career
Compared to the other greats, such as Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch, Bayley was different. Making her debut in the NXT in 2012, she caught everyone’s attention. This was due to her warm persona and an ever-present smile on her face. This, combined with her enthusiasm, made it difficult for fans to root against her. However, she was not all smiles and giggles. She quickly rose to fame and went on to defeat Sasha Banks, claiming the NXT Women’s championship title.

After making her entry to the main roster of RAW, she defeated the Queen of WWE and became the WWE RAW Women’s Champion. She later teamed up with Banks to win the Elimination Chamber and even made her way to SmackDown and won Money in the Bank Ladder Match in 2019. Later on, she returned with a more edgy look. She formed the Damage CTRL along with Dakota Kai and IYO SKY, who wreaked havoc in RAW before being drafted to SmackDown in 2023. Although there have been rumors about them breaking up. However, it has been made clear that it is not on the cards right now.
