Triple H and the creative team have done a fantastic job of introducing Valkyria and instantly making her feel like a threat in the women’s division, without overpushing her. It feels natural and her in-ring skills are those of someone who can conceivably beat any opponent.

Add in the relationship she has forged with Becky Lynch, and you have a star of the future who is being set up to succeed now.

1. • Valkyria did a great job of firing up and playing to the crowd, trying to wake the audience up on a night when it was not nearly as lively as it should have been.
   • Sky seamlessly floats into and out of the crossface submission. A great addition to her arsenal of late.
