Lyra Valkyria to debut on next week’s WWE NXT

Lyra Valkyria will make her NXT debut on next week’s show.

During a promo on Tuesday’s NXT, Valkyria said that according to legend, the Morrigan would take form of a crow, and the crow would foretell who would be victorious in a battle. She has earned a feather for every match she has won. This is her home now, and next week we will see the rise of Lyra Valkyria.

Valkyria is the former Aofie Valkyrie, who wrestled for WWE’s NXT UK brand in 2020 and 2021. She most recently appeared on the August 26, 2021 edition of NXT UK, winning a no disqualification match against Jinny.

Vignettes for Valkyria started on last week’s NXT. In her first promo, she talked about watching the birds leaving Ireland as a child, and now she herself is leaving her homeland and “shedding her feathers” as “new feathers emerge stronger”. She said she was ready for a new battleground.
