A video shows both women's time in NXT, with them in the big stage area, before showing them winning in the FCBA ring.
Charly then gets a word from Becky in her locker room "Becky Balboa is back! I have been waiting too long to get back in here and prove myself"
She adds "I like Bayley a lot, she is truly one of the good guys in life, she's always welcome for tea with me and Charlotte, but tonight I'm gonna have to give her a nap for the evening"
When Charly sees Bayley, she gets a big hug from the woman aptly known as "The Hugster" who says "this is so awesome, me and Becky getting to face off is just unreal"
Calming down for a moment, Bayley continues "I've had a rocky road lately with the stable closure here, while me and Sasha have had problems"
Getting cheerful again, she finishes "but I promise to hug Becky when we are finished, preferably after I've won of course" grinning as she goes off to warm up.
Fight night, "Celtic Invasion" plays meaning the arrival of Becky, who has her steam punk influenced jacket and goggles on her head, beginning her jog to the ring.
"From Limerick, she weighs 118lbs, Becky Lynch" is announced as Becky slides into the ring, heading to the ropes and sticking her head between the top and bottom rope to get the crowd going with her head banging.
In her corner, she gets the jacket and goggles off to reveal that she is wearing a maroon sports bra, matching trunks that have "Balboa" in silver letters on the waistband, brown gloves and shoes completes the look.
"Turn it up" now plays as Bayley comes out with her black macho man Randy Savage inspired jacket, with "It's Bayley" in green on the back and tassels on the sleeves.
As Bayley raises her arms; the inflatable flailing tube men come up on each side of the ramp to a loud pop from the crowd, even Becky in the ring seems to be loving it.
"From Newark, weighing 116lbs, Bayley" is announced as Bayley makes her way to the ring, hugging some members of the front row on her way.
Till she slides in the ring, taking her jacket off to reveal she is wearing a sports bra that's coloured half blue, half yellow, her trunks are the same with stars on, black boots and one blue glove, the other glove yellow, while her brunette hair is in a ponytail.
Both women are brought to the ring centre; where they share a smile as the referee goes through the instructions, before they are asked for a touch of gloves.
Instead both give each other a long hug, wishing each other good luck, they release each other and look serious as they head to their corners, ready for 10 rounds of bantamweight action.

Round 1:
Out come both fighters with small smiles on their faces as they circle and test each others defences out, both landing a few clean punches but mostly landing good defences.

The round ends with Bayley nodding at Becky, who simply heads back to her corner without any notice it seems of her friend, making Bayley look at her as if saying "what was that?"
Becky sits on her stool chatting away to her coach, who tells her "keep bullying her around, she doesn't like the pressure" as was seemingly proven by how well she did that round.

If the plan was to get in Bayley's head; it seems to work when she heads back to her corner with a look of confusion, her coach shouting at her "just ignore her! You've worked her out and she doesn't like it" which seems to get her out her funk.
While Becky gets her nose worked; she just sits and stares at Bayley, keeping her arms loose as she looks a little coiled spring ready for the bell.

Becky isn't much better as she sits down, her nose is bleeding again, she looks to be breathing slightly harder of the two due to her not having the rounds under her belt Bayley does.
Round 8:

Winner Becky Lynch KO Round

After:
Possibly the greatest fight of the two Boxermania cards has just taken place, both women getting a standing ovation from the crowd as Becky leans against the turnbuckle in the corner she is standing, looking relieved that she was able to overcome someone she absolutely adores and respects immensely.
The ringside doctor rushes in to check on Bayley, who asks him "I lost didn't I?" Which he nods and she just nods with a downbeat expression.
Both have to be helped to their stool to be cleaned up, Becky doesn't look much a winner as she her face is as much a mess as Bayley's.
Once she is patched up though and her gloves taken off; Becky pushes herself out her corner and heads over to Bayley's corner.
The crowd watching intently what is about to happen, with Becky not saying a word as she looks into Bayley's eyes, before she pulls up Bayley by her hands and hugs her tight.
Both women embracing as the crowd loudly cheer, Becky and Bayley both telling each other how much they respect each other and shed a tear or two as they let each other go, laughing how dumb they look crying.
Becky surprises Bayley again by raising her arm, telling her "you'll be the toughest girl I ever face in this ring and these fans know you'll be kicking arse and taking names again soon"
Bayley has her beaming smile back, thanking Becky and telling her "well you better keep your undefeated streak going to the top or I've taken these bumps for no reason" getting a chuckle from both.
Soon they leave the ring together; with both taking selfies with members of the crowd on their way to the back, showing why these two are so loved by the fans.
Arms around each others waist as they head to the locker rooms together, with the last thing heard off both is "I hope you can come for tea with me and Charlotte if you know what I mean" probably needing sterner stuff then tea after that war.
