Things are heating up on the Road to Saturday Night’s Main Event. WWE is set to deliver a major show from Madison Square Garden in New York City on July 18. Fans will witness a bitter grudge match when Bayley squares off against her former ally, Lyra Valkyria.
The tension between the two superstars has reached a boiling point following a brutal betrayal on the June 22 episode of Monday Night RAW. Valkyria shockingly turned her back on her mentor, laying out the multi-time champion in the middle of the ring after failing to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Title from Brie Bella and Paige. She even took things a step further this week on the red brand when the heel version of Lyra tried to diminish Bayley’s status. She called The Role Model a doormat for the locker room and labeled her the worst member of the legendary Four Horsewomen.
Thanks for the submission!
Instead of backing down, Bayley fired back, and she reminded Lyra of her Grand Slam status. She then announced that Adam Pearce had booked them in a match for Saturday Night’s Main Event. The heated exchange concluded with a physical brawl.
With their highly anticipated clash set for this weekend, the social media warfare has officially begun. The sports entertainment juggernaut recently posted a photo of Valkyria on X, noting a drastic change in her attitude. The official WWE account questioned what the rising star has in store for her upcoming opponent.
The Role Model quickly responded, and she boldly claimed that her rival almost looks like she lost the best thing to ever happen to her. This serves as a direct shot at their ruined partnership.
“almost looks like she lost the best thing to ever happen to her,” wrote Bayley.

The history between these two women runs deep. They once competed as a dominant force in the women’s tag team division. Their mentor-mentee dynamic made them a formidable duo capable of taking down any challengers. However, those days are gone, and both stars are now looking to make a massive statement at Madison Square Garden.
Bayley opens up on betrayal in emotional WWE RAW message to Lyra Valkyria
The Role Model has been left heartbroken by the betrayal on WWE RAW. On the July 6 episode of the red brand, she shared her thoughts in an emotional video package directed at Lyra Valkyria.
The former WWE Women’s Champion reflected on everything she had tried to do for Valkyria, admitting that she never expected their relationship to unravel in the way it has.
Bayley also revealed that she had shared her own experiences in the hope of helping Valkyria avoid the mistakes she made throughout her career. Instead, she believes those conversations were ultimately used against her.
“I’ve shared my experiences and my stories with you, thinking it would help guide you, but you just used it all against me. I just don’t understand why you couldn’t have an honest conversation with me about everything that was going on in your head. And instead, you took the easy way out. So, Lyra, I’m giving you one chance to prove to me that you’re not just like everybody else,” she said.
The New York crowd is ready to witness the fallout of this heated rivalry. It remains to be seen who will walk out as the victor this weekend.
