Bayley and Lyra Valkyria are lined up to challenge for the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania 42 in a four-team match. This follows Bayley's attack before WrestleMania 41, which sidelined her and led to Becky Lynch replacing her. Lyra Valkyria praised Bayley's support and character in comments to Sports Illustrated.
Bayley and Lyra Valkyria had been scheduled to face Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez for the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania 41. The day before the event, Bayley suffered an attack that forced her out of the match. Becky Lynch stepped in as her replacement and later revealed herself as the attacker after betraying Lyra Valkyria during the show, according to Fightful reports on WWE developments. Lyra Valkyria spoke positively about Bayley's recovery and return to WrestleMania action. In an interview with Rick Ucchino of Sports Illustrated, she said, “She was just so supportive of me at that time, and she’s done so much. You really don’t know the value that Bayley has. Everyone knows she’s a Grand Slam champion... She really is the most pure person that I’ve ever met.” Valkyria highlighted Bayley's behind-the-scenes contributions and positive influence, noting no bitterness despite past setbacks. Now, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria are set to compete in a four-team match for the titles at WrestleMania 42. Their opponents include The Bella Twins—Nikki Bella and Brie Bella—Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair, as well as the Irresistible Forces, Nia Jax and Lash Legend. This matchup offers them another shot at championship gold.
