...Bayley!

It's good to see the ex-Women's Champion back in the mix again. If we're nitpicking once more, then you'd have to say Bayley needs new entrance music for moments like this run-in spot. Her current theme starts too slowly, so the live crowd never popped until they saw her sprinting down the aisle. That's a small gripe, obviously.

Bayley going straight after Tiffany Stratton made sense after everything that's happened too. It's worth pointing out that Tiff was about to cash in her Money In The Bank briefcase before Nia stopped selling long enough to look up and ask what the hell she was playing at. That'll be referenced in future promos for sure.

The next step is Bayley playing mind games with Stratton by trying to use her briefcase powers as a way to irk Jax. Michin can be involved in that too if need be, but it'd likely be best if she moved onto her own thing and continued developing. This strong performance should earn her that chance.
