Just one week later, Lynch kicked off her promo by revealing that she was the person that attacked Bayley and took her out of WrestleMania 41. Lynch blamed her decision on Bayley's attacks in recent years, also criticizing her comments about wanting to be a bigger star.

Then, Lynch focused on Valkyria, saying that the friend of her enemy is her enemy. Lynch noted that she tried to get Valkyria to dump "that bitch".

Valkyria arrived moments later, saying that many women in the locker room warned her about her. Continuing on, Valkyria stated that the illusion of Becky Lynch is now dead.

The segment ended with Valkyria demanding a match against Lynch at Backlash, even offering to put up the Women's Intercontinental Championship on the line. Valkyria made sure to get the last words in, saying that she's no longer interested in being the next Becky Lynch, noting that she is a better person and wrestler then 'The Man' is.
