TLDR : Answer Summary
If you're arriving in Bangkok for an overnight transit to Vietnam, you'll need to determine if you'll have to cross passport control to collect your bags and check in again for your next flight. If so, you are technically entering Thailand and may require a visa unless you qualify for visa exemption or a visa on arrival.

If yes then you're entering Thailand. If you don't qualify for visa exempt or another type of entry on arrival then you'll need to get a visa before you travel.
