Lyra Valkyria talks about her respect for Bayley.
At WrestleMania 41, Lyra Valkyria and Bayley were originally scheduled to challenge for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. However, after an attack backstage, Bayley would be replaced by the returning Becky Lynch at the event, with Lyra and Lynch walking away with the titles.
While speaking to Michael Fairman in an interview before WrestleMania 41, Lyra was asked about Bayley
"Bayley is amazing, and even though we haven't teamed for that long, I think a big part of why we work so well is honestly outside of the ring, we hit it off just so well out of nowhere. I feel like that really plays into our matches. Anytime we're on screen together, we're just... she's just so great."
In the same interview, Lyra also spoke about how crazy it is for her to be buddies with women like Bayley who she used to idolize as a fan.
On the RAW After WrestleMania, Lyra and Becky would lose the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships, with Becky turning on Lyra after the match. You can read more about that here.
