Lyra Valkyria Reacts to Bayley Teaming Up With Her Former Tag Team Partner at NXT Live Event

WWE Superstar Lyra Valkyria has commented on Bayley teaming up with her former tag team partner at a recent NXT live event.

As previously noted, former WWE Women’s Champion Bayley competed at an NXT live event for the first time in a decade on Friday, May 15.

The Role Model teamed up with current Women’s North American Champion Tatum Paxley and Kendal Grey to take on Nikkita Lyons, Kelani Jordan, and Zaria in a six-woman tag team match.

On X, Lyra commented on Bayley joining forces with her former tag team partner, i.e., Tatum Paxley, after The Role Model shared a picture of the trio from the event. Valkyria and Paxley had a nearly inseparable alliance during the Irish star’s days in NXT. The relationship started with Paxley having an obsession with Lyra, who eventually acknowledged her loyalty and formed an alliance. Valkyria often returns to NXT to catch up with Paxley.

Meanwhile, Lyra and Bayley have been a tag team on Monday Night RAW since last summer, frequently competing for the Women’s Tag Team Championship.

“I can’t believe my tag partner stole my tag partner,” she wrote
