Bayley vs. IYO SKY is next.

Bayley had a cool entrance where she was carried as if she was Cleopatra.

Massive Bayley chants when she was introduced.

Some good action early.  Bayley nailed a dive.  IYO cut her off and attacked the knee, going after the injury that kept Bayley out for so long. IYO was in control until they went to the floor and Bayley reversed a whip, sending her over the barricade.  SKY fought back and went for a leap off the barricade but Bayley caught and slammed her.

Bayley's knee was bothering her a little but she still was able to spin the champ into a slam for a two count.  

They are setting up something for the Cody-Roman entrances on the stage.

Bayley nailed a sunset flip bomb, sending IYO into the buckles.

IYO nailed a big moonsault but Bayley pulled her knees up.  The idea was she hurt her knee again.  The crowd love chanted for Bayley.

Bayley missed a top rope elbow and was trapped in a submission.  Bayley turned it into a pinfall but IYO kicked up, drilled her with an elbow to the neck and transitioned back to the submission.  IYO locked in a STF.

Bayley snatched her in a Bayley to Belly suplex but IYO kicked out at the last match.

They faced off and lapped each other before slugging it out.  IYO used a Jay Driller into a backbreaker.  IYO almost got the pin with a moonsault but Bayley kicked up and the crowd came to life with her, chanting for Bayley.  Great babyface stuff here.  They battled and Bayley nailed a lariat but her knee buckled.  Bayley rallied through and nailed a suplex, then went to the top.  She nailed the flying elbow and drilled IYO for the pin.

Your winner Bayley!

A really good match that got better the longer it went.  Bayley gets her moment.  Well deserved as she wins her first ever Wrestlemania singles match.

The ROAR when Bayley stood on the ropes with the title belt was truly something to hear.  I hope it translated well on the broadcast.

They showed SNL's Michael Che, George Kittle. T Pain, Lilly Singh, Vanessa Hudgens and War and Treaty at ringside.  

The Philadelphia Eagles and Snoop Dogg made the official announcement for the Wrestlemania Night Two attendance, which was stated to be 72,755.

The two night attendance was 145,420.  Well, he said 420.  WWE says it was 145, 298.

Time for the main event on Page 4!
