Lyra Valkyria has long been pumped up about winning the Money in the Bank 2024 women’s division ladder match. Alongside Jey Uso, she was the first name to vouch to be one of the participants of the upcoming ladder match set for the titular show. Now that she’s officially in to compete in the ladder match from an international location outside the US, she seems confident enough to pick up the big win.
On the June 24 episode of Monday Night Raw, Lyra Valkyria defeated Shayna Baszler and Kairi Sane in a triple-threat encounter to enter the Women’s Money in the Bank 2024 Ladder Match. While her opponents were seemingly dominating earlier in the match, the newest NXT import came out on top by seizing an opportunity and hitting her Nightwing finisher on Sane.
