*Bayley's POV*

It was the July 31, 2014 episode of NXT and I was already standing in the ring without any form of notice on who my opponent was. I knew it couldn't be Becky Lynch who debuted on TV not too long ago and it couldn't be Charlotte either.

I wasn't sure at all who was going to face me tonight but I had my head up tall and strong. I wasn't sure if it was someone who'd be easy to defeat or someone that was maybe at my level.

Suddenly, I heard a blare of a guitar hitting one pitch before an unfamiliar song began blaring throughout the audience. I heard cheers too as I eyed this... girl... coming to the ring.

I didn't know if I was seeing this correctly at first but it was clear to me now. This girl looked very young, probably barely hitting her teens. She looked short, pretty short for her age. She had wavy raven hair with dark blue strikes and maybe lighter than tan skin but not quite pale. She seemed slender but quite muscular, an interesting sight for someone as petite as her.

She had on black jean shorts, black combat boots, black knee pads with an owl on each one outlined in dark blue, black fingerless gloves with an owl on each one also outlined in dark blue, and a black v-neck crop top (going down to just below her breasts) that molded perfectly to her body.

She was walking down to the ring, looking like she was smirking. Her smirk looked quite adorable and if she was turning to be shaped into an anti-hero, I would be shocked to see how it went down. It was only seconds before her name was announced.

"And her opponent, from Austin, Texas, Imigie!"

That name sounded pretty different and it actually sounded nice. I won't even lie here.

The new girl Imigie got into the ring between the bottom rope and the middle rope then stood up as she stood by the turnbuckle opposite of me.

Before I realized it, her smirking face turned serious.

Seeing her up close suddenly ran something in my head. She looked so familiar and it wasn't just because I saw her in the indies under ring name Nikki Vazquez. I suddenly realized that I had seen her the performance center but never did I catch her name and when I saw her, it was brief.

It was only a matter of time before the timekeeper would ring the bell for the match to start.

Just after I tightened my side ponytail, the bell rang for the match to start and I was sure I would be in for one hell of a surprise.

*Imigie's POV*

I squared my shoulders as I stared into the eyes of my opponent... Bayley.

Much to my surprise, she looked a bit intimidated by me even though I was shorter than she was. I was guessing it was because of how my expression looked like I wanted to take someone down.

The two of us ended up locking up, fighting for control. It ended up lasting for fifteen seconds before I took control.

It started with me giving her a clothesline, her hitting the mat quite hard.

Even through her state, Bayley managed to pull some offense by scooping me down hard.

She and I began to exchange punches, the fight already getting too close for comfort.

I definitely could see myself facing Bayley in the future. She was pretty solid, close enough to my level but I didn't want to be arrogant.

I kicked Bayley away then gave her a spear without a hint of hesitation.

I quickly pinned Bayley for the three count when the crowd cheered loudly. I didn't even care if it was a smaller crowd. I was just pleased that I was able to make my debut here.

"Here is your winner, Imigie!"

I gave smiles and waves to the crowd. It was such a pleasure to be part of NXT. Now I was ready to see if anyone was willing to stand up and fight against me. That was the real question that would ring inside of my head.
