Former NXT Women’s Champion Lyra Valkyria feels at home on Monday Night RAW.
WWE Superstar Lyra Valkyria recently spoke to Rick Ucchino of Sports Illustrated. When asked about her transition to the main roster after her incredible run in NXT, Valkyria took the time to reflect on her first couple of months as a member of the RAW roster.
“To have gone all the way in [the Queen of the Ring] tournament and make it to the finals, gone to Saudi Arabia and wrestled current WWE Women’s Champion Nia Jax was pretty, pretty massive,” Lyra Valkyria said. “I feel like if I ran through that fire without it stopping me in my first month, then anything is possible really for me.”
With Becky Lynch currently out of contract with WWE, Valkyria has found friendship in the team of Kaden Carter and Katana Chance.
“Yeah, absolutely. I love that smoke gun,” Lyra said with a good laugh. “I love working with [Katana] and Kayden. They’re are our resident party girls on Monday Night Raw. They’re really fast. They’re really dynamic. They’ve got like such a cool vibe and I just love working with them.”
Valkyria made a surprise return on NXT this week to save Tatum Paxley from Wendy Choo and TNA Wrestling’s Rosemary. Despite that, Lyra finally feels at home as a member of the main roster.
“I’m at a point now where I feel at home on Monday Night Raw, so that’s lovely,” Lyra Valkyria said.
