00:00We are just hours away from a massive international weekend throughout the entire WWE, but first
00:07we get some more action right here on Main Event.
00:19The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:22Introducing first, from Dublin, Ireland, Lyra Valkyria!
00:32Well, we're getting the action started tonight for the second week in a row,
00:35with this young superstar who ever since joining the Monday Night Raw roster back in the spring
00:39has been right on the cusp of some major breakthrough moments.
00:43Really making a name for herself, it's Lyra Valkyria.
00:46Good pronunciation there, dog.
00:47Yeah, I've been working on it.
00:49As Lyra looking to pick up another feather tonight, of course, picked up a huge win
00:53right here last week on Main Event as we welcome in ringside here Blake Howard
00:56alongside the Hall of Famer, the D-O-double-G, Brian James.
00:59And Brian, we're pushing right towards Berlin.
01:01We are about to be bashing at Bashing Berlin,
01:04but tonight we got a couple of main events in store for you.
01:07Certainly a big way to set the pace for a massive weekend here.
01:10And talk about opportunity, dog.
01:13Opportunity to shine.
01:20And her opponent, from Laos, Michigan, Izzy Day!
01:28A blue-chip prospect right from the volleyball courts of Division I Eastern Michigan
01:33to the big stage of Europe, now just over a year into her journey inside the ring.
01:37The blunt and calculated Great Dame of NXT makes her first appearance here on Main Event.
01:43I love the moniker, the Great Dame.
01:46I love the moniker, the Great Dame.
01:48Izzy Day, this is my first opportunity to see her in action, and I'm excited.
01:525'10", certainly towering over Valkyria.
01:55Certainly towering over Valkyria already.
01:58Definite height advantage.
01:59Indeed, most of the athletes in the women's division in NXT,
02:02and of course, Lyra Valkyria, former NXT Women's Champion,
02:05held that title for 165 days.
02:07And Izzy Day now with the biggest opportunity of her career,
02:10trying to chop down Valkyria.
02:12Valkyria just in-ring royalty as far as in-between the ropes.
02:16And like I said earlier, really made an impact on coming to the main roster,
02:20so I'm interested to see how Izzy Day compares to her.
02:23Izzy Day looking to assert herself right in the opening moments here.
02:26We talked about Lyra joining the Monday Night Raw roster just over four months ago.
02:30Doug, would you consider this run a success so far?
02:32Oh, oh my lord, a success.
02:34Yeah, with bells on, you know what I mean?
02:37She's so impressive in her little run so far.
02:41You know, she's only been here a short amount of time
02:44and really showed a lot so far.
02:46Back to the finals of the Queen of the Ring tournament,
02:48qualified for the Money in the Bank ladder match.
02:50Here we go into the cover.
02:51And the most impressive thing about that to me
02:53was she perched up on that middle rope for a few seconds.
02:55I can't even stand on them, period.
02:57And she like stood there for a second.
02:59A road dog, not typically the high flyer.
03:01No, no, no. I was a ground gang.
03:03And basically what I mean by that is
03:05the people would beat me down to the ground,
03:07and then I'd try to tag my partner.
03:08With some championships in-between.
03:10Lyra Valkyria has her opponent Dizzy Dane right now.
03:13I was more like Dizzy Aime, you know what I mean?
03:15Like I was kind of just wandering around.
03:18That sounds about right.
03:19As Lyra Valkyria now, oh!
03:22I've got two words for you.
03:24Um, I don't really, I couldn't think of one.
03:27That was only one.
03:28Yeah, I couldn't think of one.
03:29As Valkyria keeping Dane grounded right here.
03:31Of course, Lyra Valkyria certainly a little bit
03:33of a different look this week than Lola Vice a week ago.
03:35Wow, yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely.
03:37But the experience factor.
03:39Oh, wow!
03:40I can't believe I mentioned that.
03:41Maybe I ruined it for them.
03:43Well, Dizzy Dane certainly found that opening right there.
03:45As Valkyria now.
03:46Quick learn, this girl is.
03:48And Dizzy Dane, who we've seen associated in the past
03:50with current RAL superstar Kiana James.
03:53Now let's take another look right here.
03:54Valkyria should have built some momentum.
03:56And derailed immediately.
03:58But then she put the boots to her in the corner
04:01with a mainstream.
04:03Because it certainly is what it is here tonight
04:05on Main Event.
04:06Doug, we talked about that.
04:07Oh, it is what it is.
04:08That's cool.
04:09Did you just make that up?
04:10No, it wasn't.
04:11Oh, my bad.
04:12Very cool.
04:13Very cool.
04:14Into the cover right there.
04:15Speaking of NXT, we certainly saw her associated in the past
04:18with current RAW superstar Kiana James.
04:20Doug, how powerful is that doing?
04:21Oh, wow.
04:22Kiana James, she's been out for a minute now.
04:24But she came right in and tried to take over Adam Pearce's job.
04:27Maybe that's why she hasn't been around.
04:29Dizzy Dane certainly picked up right where Kiana James
04:31left off in NXT.
04:32Of course, we talked about her professional volleyball days.
04:34Wow.
04:35In the country of Cypress there.
04:36Tilt-a-whirl backbreaker.
04:37Hooks the outside leg.
04:38Powerful, too.
04:39And Dane right on the cusp.
04:41And Dizzy Dane says you either have it or you don't.
04:43Doug, what do you see so far from Dizzy Dane?
04:45She has it.
04:46I mean, look, I saw just in her main streak I was impressed.
04:48Like, she was not scared to stomp a mud hole in Valkyria.
04:53Dizzy Dane says she's here simply to make money.
04:56That's the way to do it.
04:57Beat people.
04:58And also some trash-talking to go along with it.
05:01And certainly not showing a lot of respect there
05:03to the NXT Women's Champion.
05:04Oh, she ain't scared.
05:05She ain't scared to hit you.
05:07But Valkyria here trying to fight back.
05:09Oh, coming back.
05:10How resilient has Valkyria really proven to be?
05:12Oh, if it wasn't for Ivy now, I'd call her the Pitbull.
05:16As right now.
05:17Oh, Izzy!
05:18Oh!
05:19Raideen Bob up and down into the cover.
05:21Oh!
05:22I'll tell you what.
05:23That is the way she caught her there
05:25and the way she quick scouted that second rope thing earlier.
05:28And look at the height and extension right here
05:31as Izzy Dane really asserting her strength.
05:33With authority.
05:35Almost surprised she kicked out of that.
05:37And of course, Izzy Dane.
05:38Look at her.
05:39She's powerful.
05:40Certainly doesn't care if she's liked by anyone in the WWE,
05:43whether it be an NXT, Monday Night Raw,
05:45or Friday Night SmackDown.
05:46She said she wants to make money, not friends.
05:49And she already feels like she's at the top
05:51of the respect chain, if you will.
05:53Has Izzy Dane already earned that type of respect
05:55here in the WWE?
05:56Negatory, negatory, negatory, good buddy.
05:58But the problem is she feels like she has,
06:01and that's the issue there.
06:02She will find out and she will learn lessons in life
06:05like we all have.
06:06And she will learn respect.
06:08And Valkyria in a very compromising position right here.
06:10Indeed, Izzy Dane looking to break her.
06:12As right now.
06:14Oh, nice counter there by Valkyria.
06:16And Lyra, of course, in a quest to collect more feathers.
06:19Picking up another win over Izzy Dane.
06:23And now Lyra.
06:24Looking to channel the spirit of the Morrigan right here.
06:29Big sweeping shots.
06:30Yeah, these are receipts.
06:33And Valkyria says she feels alive when she flies.
06:36Let's see if she comes to life right here on Main Event.
06:39And Lyra now.
06:42If you look at a slow down the pace a little bit,
06:44certainly want to keep Izzy Dane grounded.
06:46Ground her, that's the way to do it.
06:47And Valkyria certainly looking to follow in the path
06:49of the likes of Becky Lynch, Finn Balor, Sheamus,
06:52and fellow countrymen.
06:53Whoa!
06:54And of course, the former NXT Women's Champion,
06:56Valkyria looking to do just that.
06:57Go in here, you mentioned flying earlier.
06:59And Valkyria.
07:00She's going to feel...
07:01This is time.
07:02Two.
07:03Wow.
07:04Wow.
07:05And connects with Dane right through the middle rope there.
07:08No, I think she hit her in the face.
07:09Indeed she did.
07:10Oh, she went through the...
07:11I understand where you're going.
07:12There you go.
07:13A little geometry.
07:14That's okay, Blake.
07:15I failed with geometry.
07:16As right now, Izzy Dane sent back inside
07:18and Lyra might be looking to fly once again.
07:20She is going high again.
07:21If she dropkicks her in the face again,
07:23that's going to be it.
07:24And how comfortable Valkyria is up top.
07:27There's the cross.
07:28With the far leg.
07:29Into the cover.
07:30Wow.
07:31And Dane powers out.
07:32I can't believe that.
07:33I cannot believe that.
07:34Of course, Izzy Dane lives by that.
07:36Will do anything by any means necessary attitude.
07:40And looking to pick up a win just like that.
07:43Nice counter there by Dane.
07:45And now Izzy looking to take right over here, dog.
07:47Tilt-a-whirl.
07:48Well scouted by Lyra.
07:49Oh!
07:50And connects with the enziguri.
07:53You know, it doesn't get you like a kick in the face.
07:55Right into position here.
07:57And it's for Nightwing.
08:00And another day and another feather for Lyra Valkyria.
08:06Here is your winner, Lyra Valkyria!
08:13And dog, for the second week in a row,
08:15the former NXT Women's Champion is pushed by a member of the NXT roster.
08:19Last week Lola Weiss, this week Izzy Dane.
08:21Look at the power and strength asserted right there, dog.
08:24Right on the cusp of victory.
08:25Yeah, but power didn't carry the day.
08:27Was the great game.
08:28But look at Lyra soaring right through the air.
08:31On the cusp of victory right here.
08:32And then finally up into position.
08:34Bam!
08:35There's the Nightwish.
08:36And just like that, dog, Lyra Valkyria putting together a bit of a winning streak here on Main Event.
08:44As dog's continuing to motion over to Lyra.
08:46Looks like he might want to fly.
08:47I want to fly with him.
08:48Collect some feathers as Valkyria picks up another big win here on Main Event.
