Speaking to Muscle Man Malcolm, Lyra commented on being part of the first-ever women's Speed match.

"I'm so excited for this tournament. First-ever women's Speed match. I get to be the first one to do it. It's an exciting time.

"It's a pretty insane first bracket match to be in against IYO. We're currently 1-1. To have that third match, it's not just that I have to beat her, I have to do it in three minutes. I'm pretty confident. I feel my style is really suited for the Speed tournament match and to go all the way."

The first-ever WWE Women's Speed Champion will be crowned on October 9.
