WWE Cameras Film Bayley At Florida Indy Event

Why did the camera crews follow the NXT Women's Champ to an indy show?

NXT held a house show in Winter Haven, Florida on Saturday evening, but the NXT Women's Champion was not on hand for the event. Instead, Bayley was in attendance at an independent wrestling show elsewhere in the state of Florida. Perhaps more interesting, WWE camera crews followed her and filmed some segments over the course of the evening. https://twitter.com/itsBayleyWWE/status/653031489865678848 The indy wrestling show was put on by American Combat Wrestling (ACW), which also happens to be a promotion that Bayley's boyfriend (Aaron Solow) presently wrestles for. ACW is also an affiliate of WWN live, an independent wrestling video streaming network which has a fairly large presence on the Roku streaming device. WWE has been in discussion with WWN, including their affiliate EVOLVE Wrestling, about a possible working relationship. Triple H addressed this during his conference call with the media last week prior to NXT Takeover, and he noted that discussions between the company's are still on-going. EVOLVE's Gabe Sapolsky was recently a special guest of WWE at SummerSlam. Clearly, some form of an agreement must have been reached given the WWE presence at Saturday's ACW show. The camera's on hand at ACW on Saturday evening were reportedly filming segments for the upcoming WWE Network series titled Breaking Ground. WWN's Sal Hamaoui announced this to the fans in attendance at the show. https://twitter.com/PatrickMcVicar/status/652924425684287488
