Ahead of WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas, Lyra Valkyria appeared on TMZ’s Inside The Ring for an interview where she discussed Lola Vice’s recent NXT Women’s Championship win and gave her thoughts on the on-screen dynamic between Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss.

During the interview, Valkyria was asked what advice she would offer Lola Vice following her title victory. She stressed that the real challenge begins after reaching the top.

“Not to get comfortable, I guess, and to… keep working, and like, the hard work only really begins when you’re at the top, because then it’s easy to- when you’ve got a point to prove and you’re trying to prove you’re the best, it’s easy to have that fire in you. But then when people are looking at you, just expecting you to be the best as the champion, that’s when it’s really hard. So I’ve been in the ring with Lola, obviously she’s a star. You just look at her and you can see it. We knew it was only going to be a matter of time before she held that title and she’s been working and grafting down there, and she’s in Mexico, and she’s everywhere. I was actually quite happy to see her get her moment, because she was in the title contention when I was in NXT, and we’re two years on now. So I think that it must have meant so much to her to finally conquer the mountain. So I’m very happy for her, and I hope that I one day see her in the ring again.”

Valkyria also addressed the partnership between Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, raising doubts about how strong their alliance really is.

“Charlotte and Alexa could end up being a threat to each other because I don’t think they have a genuine friendship. I think they’ve got two big egos and I think they’re friends of convenience, and I think they use each other and their friendship is surface level, and that is the difference between what they have and what me and Bayley have, and that’s going to make the biggest difference when it comes to those titles.”

At WrestleMania 42, Valkyria will team with Bayley to compete for the WWE Women’s Tag-Team Titles. They are set to face Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, The Bella Twins, and The Irresistible Forces in a multi-team match at Allegiant Stadium on April 18 and April 19.
