WWE King & Queen Of The Ring 2024: 10 Things That Must Happen
8. Lyra Valkyria Becomes Queen
Raw newcomer Lyra Valkyria punched her ticket on the plane by beating IYO SKY this past Monday night. On SmackDown, either Bianca Belair or Nia Jax will join the former NXT star in that Queen Of The Ring final. More on that in a bit, but something rings true no matter who wins on Friday.
Lyra has to grab the crown 24 hours later.
She hasn't lost since moving up to the main roster, and there's no need to start now before she achieves something memorable. This is WWE's chance to make up for a prior effort with Zelina Vega (which most have probs forgotten) back in 2021 - 'Queen' Valkyria has a nice ring to it too.
One word of warning though: WWE shouldn't turn Lyra into some snobbish royal. She's best-suited as a babyface understudy to Becky Lynch right now, and it'd be senseless to rush into a heel turn when she literally landed on Raw less than a full month ago.
