WWE is planning to conclude the feud between Bayley & Lyra Valkyria.
Bayley and Lyra Valkyria have been feuding since June, when Valkyria turned on Bayley, attacking her tag partner after another disappointing loss. Now, according to a new report from WrestleVotes Radio of Fightful Select, WWE is looking to conclude the feud.
According to the report, the promotion had discussed a creative idea as recently as last week for a “rare” stipulation match between Bayley and Valkyria to serve as the blowoff to their rivalry. However, the report clarified that the proposed stipulation would not be a Hell in a Cell match.
The feud was on hold due to Bayley’s absence and the rumors surrounding her contract situation. However, since her return last month, the two have faced each other on the September 21 edition of Raw, where Valkyria picked up the win.
Most recently, Bayley interfered during the September 28 edition of Raw in Valkyria’s match against Iyo Sky, distracting Lyra, which helped Iyo to pick up the win.
