Bayley made a surprise appearance at Big Time Wrestling’s 30th anniversary event, held on Sunday at the San Jose Civic in California. Before arriving in WWE, Bayley began her wrestling career with the company in 2008 under the name Davina Rose.
During the show, Bayley served as special guest referee for the match between Aaron Solo and Chazz “Starboy” Hall for the BTW World Championship. Hall defeated Solo and won the title.
However, the path to Hall’s victory began with an attempt by Solo to attack him with the championship belt. Then, Bayley stopped the attack but ended up accidentally hitting Solo. Hall secured the victory after hitting a Shooting Star Press.
Bayley, who was previously engaged to Solo, also had an emotional moment while speaking to the crowd. She then thanked the fans, who welcomed her with “welcome back” chants, and highlighted her mother’s presence in the front row.

As previously reported by Wrestling Noticias, Bayley had already participated in a Big Time Wrestling event in June 2025, when she accompanied LJ Cleary to the ring.
The new BTW World Champion, Chazz Hall, is also part of WWE EVOLVE. On last Tuesday’s NXT, Hall appeared on the show alongside Mini Vikingo, when both were defeated by the Vanity Project.
Bayley was in action at both WWE events held in Hawaii. On the first night, she participated in a Fatal 4-Way Match won by Sol Ruca. The next day, she defeated Lyra Valkyria in a Street Fight in Honolulu.
In addition to Bayley, Honor, Glory & Big Time featured big names such as Rob Van Dam, Andrade El Idolo, Mustafa Ali, Bandido and Mike Bailey.
