Lyra Valkyria Vows Revenge On ‘Backstabbing’ Becky Lynch At WWE Backlash

Lyra Valkyria has vowed to get revenge on Becky Lynch for Bayley at WWE Backlash. As noted, last night’s Raw saw Becky Lynch admit to attacking Bayley at WrestleMania 41, which led to a WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship match with Valkyria being made for Backlash. Valkyria cut a promo on Lynch that was posted to Twitter by WWE on Tuesday, which you can see below.
“Did you see how quickly she ran away from me in that ring?,” Valkyria said of Lynch (per Fightful). “She actually could not have gotten out of that ring any faster. She’s actually always been like this and I have never noticed because I had stars in my eyes. She’s always been running her mouth, stepping on people, and then leaving.”
She continued, “It took me until now to see it because even as far back as NXT, she told me I was this big hope. She made me feel so great about myself. She just waited until WrestleMania to cash it in and she ruined my dream, she ruined Bayley’s dream. Bayley, look, if you’re watching this, you don’t have to answer my texts, just know that I am truly truly sorry and at Backlash, i’m going to beat that throat cutting backstabbing liar and I’m gonna do it for both of us.”
