A Bra and Panties match is so named because it takes place between any amount of female competitors with the winner being the first to strip her opponent to nothing but her bra and panties. An Evening Gown match ends the same way, but instead of the women starting out the match in regular clothing or ring attire they begin in evening gowns. WCW held an "ROTC" match of the same nature, with the contestants beginning the match in camouflage military style attire. The title of the match was a play on the acronym for Reserve Officers' Training Corps and in the match stood for "Rip Off The Camouflage."
Xtreme Pro Wrestling went further with the idea; promoting a Buck Naked match, during which one competitor was supposed to be stripped completely. Only one such match ever took place, with the house lights being turned off before any actual nudity could be seen.

In Videogames
The Bra and Panties match has also been featured as a match type in several videogames. These games include:
- WWE Smackdown! Here Comes the Pain
- WWE Smackdown! vs. Raw - Also includes a spanking mini-game. In bra and panties matchups, a female wrestler could enter a "spanking" mini-game. The meter mechanic from the chop battles are retained, but the player must perfectly time the button press three consecutive times to win. If the player does so, a cut scene of the two female wrestlers kissing is played.
