Lyra Valkyria: The Most Important Match Is Always The Next One

Lyra Valkyria previews her match with Roxanne Perez.

Lyra Valkyria says she is heading into the biggest match of her career.

Since dethroning Becky Lynch at NXT Halloween Havoc 2023, Valkyria has held the championship and now is set to face off with Roxanne Perez for the title. The pair previously met for the title at NXT Vengeance Day but were interrupted by Lola Vice cashing in her breakout star contract.

While speaking to Denise Salcedo during the WrestleMania media event on Friday, Lyra was asked about her upcoming match with Roxanne and how she is feeling ahead of the biggest match of her career.

“Biggest match of my career. The most important match is always the next one. This is everything to me and I won’t be losing it this Saturday. I’m sick of people thinking that Roxanne has a point. So Saturday, I finally put her down.” 

Elsewhere in the same interview, Lyra addressed dethroning Becky Lynch for the NXT Women’s Championship last year. You can read more about that here.
