Before: No secret what Claire and Shay will be wearing for the Halloween PPV., they are more than happy to appear in costume for the pre-fight.

Pink and white cowboy hat and boots sparkling with rhinestones.
“It’s Halloween, time for me to show off my playful side,:” Claire says, adding with a mischievous smile, “I imagine there are a good number of people who around here who don’t think I’ve got one. But, as you can see, I show off as much glitter as anyone from the PLP. I have already beaten Troian Bellisario. I thought it was time to crush the first title shot ever offered to Shay Mitchell. You don’t have to thank me Shay, just kiss my cowboy boots after I have beaten you down.”
Shay Mitchell is wearing her “Barbarella” costume from the 2012 PLL Halloween episode: a silvery white one-piece with black trim, silver thigh-boots and a short silver cape. She smiles good naturally through Claire’s jibes.
“Kissing your cowboy boots? Well, you better watch out, Claire, maybe you’ll be the one putting her lips to my silver boots here.” (She points to her boots. Claire wrinkles her nose). “Oh well, I do appreciate this opportunity. I want to win, but don’t think you’ll crush my spirit of I don’t. Lucy Hale got us our first flyweight title. I want to be the Puncher who gets us our first bantamweight title!”
“You won’t be getting it from me!” Claire says with assurance. Shay just smiles but there is a glinting of determination in her dark eyes.
Come the night of the PPV, slight costume modifications for the actual, Claire hands off the cowboy hat and vest to an attendant, while Shay hands off her cape and is wearing high laced, silver boots, though not thigh-highs.

Shay backing up, but still fighting though her offensive momentum fades as time runs out on the round. Claire wins a close, hard-fought round.

Claire is the one caught off balance this time and Shay goes right after her chin with overhand rights and lefts.

“…NINE!....TEN!...YER OUT!”
THE WINNER AND NEW FCBA BANTAMWEIGHT CHAMPION SHAY MITCHELL KO9!
After: Shay sagging back against turnbuckle a look of shock on her face. Then her PLP teammates: Lucy Hale, Ashley Benson, Troian Bellisario, Sasha Pieterse, Leah Pipes, Danielle Campbell, Hayley Atwell, Danielle Harris, Autumn Reeser, and Nia Peeples: the whole PLP staff and fighters are crowding around their second FCBA title holder.
“Oh, this is so wonderful!” Shay chokes out as happy tears run down her cheeks. “I wanted to do my best against Claire Danes and it turned out my best was good enough to beat her! I joked about her kissing my boots, but when I saw her land on them—it was all like a dream come true! Oh, if I’m dreaming I don’t want to wake up!”
But Shay Mitchell not dreaming and soon enough she is showing off the Bantamweight Title Belt. She looks over to see Claire Danes looking stunned and bewildered being tended on her stool. Impulsively she goes over to Claire.
“I just wanted to thank you for giving me this title shot and telling you how much I respect you as a champion,”: Shay says sincerely.
“Take care of that belt,” Claire says, “I expect to get it back and I want it looking as good as when you got it.”
“I can do that,” Shay said sincerely.
“Now please get out of my sight. I would like to forget this fight and I can’t do that with you standing there all happy and victorious,” Claire said, but with a hint of a smile.
“I said my piece, I’m going—but I tell you what—I am never going to forget this fight,: Shay said cherfully and turned away.
Mish Williams suddenly appeared in the ring: “Well that was sickening. You going soft on us?”
Claire looked up at her: “Sometimes you just have to say what you’re thinking. Now get me out of here, I got a title I got to start planning to win back…”
Very exciting fight and possibly an historic one in the career of Pretty Little Puncher Shay Mitchell. She had to be considered the underdog in this fight, but she proved she could get up from a knockdown and still beat a strong veteran in Claire Danes. Not a happy night for Claire Danes and it’s got to start talk among observers that time is at last catching up her. Yet, we think Dabes will merely regard this as a setback and she’s had them before. She will be determined to come back, but can see? That should be a most interesting question as the old year ends and a new one starts to draw near
