00:00Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Lyra Bancuria.
00:19She's the number one contender for the Women's Intercontinental Championship.
00:22And on SummerSlam Sunday, she'll battle Becky Lynch for the title.
00:26But I'll show you what happened last week on Monday Night Raw.
00:29Lyra is actually teaming with Bayley against the judge today for Women's Tag Titles.
00:34The matchup was certainly an unusual pairing.
00:36But the man would make her presence known at the expense of her SummerSlam challenger.
00:42Launching an attack on Valkyria, who was absent as Bayley needed a tag.
00:48Which led to Roxanne Perez looking to capitalize.
00:54Which she would in the form of a blind tag to Raquel Rodriguez.
00:59A thunderous Tejana bomb takes out Bayley.
01:04And her championship dreams went up in smoke.
01:10But now as we head to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, the man Becky Lynch,
01:15the reigning Women's Intercontinental Champion, will defend against Lyra Valkyria.
01:21But this time, there are no count outs, no disqualifications, no excuses.
01:27What is up Detroit?
01:35We are five days away from SummerSlam.
01:38How are we feeling?
01:39I am Lyra Valkyria.
01:45And these are more than just my big shoes.
01:49These are my Becky Stompers.
01:55In two weeks, in one week, I will be standing here as your first ever two-time winner.
02:08Two-time Women's Intercontinental Champion.
02:11Or I will have failed.
02:19And I will never again be able to challenge for
02:23the title as long as Becky is champion.
02:26Actually, if that happens, there's a good chance I won't be standing at all.
02:35Because Becky is going to have to beat me into the ground if she wants to walk out of
02:42SummerSlam with that title.
02:43Look, I already know that Becky doesn't like to play by the rules.
02:54In fact, that's the only reason that she was able to beat me for
02:57the championship in the first place.
02:59So I thought, fine, let's try it her way.
03:06Can't break the rules if there were no rules to be broken, right?
03:14Some of you guys, you might think that I'm playing right into her hands.
03:18But the thing you need to understand is,
03:21I've seen everything that Becky Lynch has ever done.
03:23I know exactly what she's capable of in this type of match-up.
03:28But she doesn't know what I'm capable of.
03:33In fact, I'm not even sure if I know what I'm capable of.
03:39All I know is I am prepared to go to a place that I have never gone before.
03:44Well, she's gonna have to because the match Saturday, remember Corey,
03:49there's no disqualification, no count out.
03:52If Lyra doesn't win, she doesn't get a shot at the Intercontinental Championship
03:55ever again as long as Becky's the champ.
03:57Incredibly high stakes for both Valkyria and Lynch.
04:01And Lyra's got her feet planted like she's ready to fight.
04:04But wait a minute, Valkyria was a step ahead.
04:08Becky Lynch came out from out of nowhere with a kendo stick.
04:12But Lyra Valkyria was ready for Becky.
04:15And now unloading on Lynch with a kendo stick,
04:17which would be legal on SummerSlam Sunday.
04:22Lyra swinging that lumber like O'Neal Cruz at the expense of the Intercontinental Champion.
04:28Lynch trying to get the hell out of Dodge.
04:32Yeah, Becky intercepting Lyra.
04:34And now it's Becky's turn.
04:37But Lyra not gonna allow it to happen, was gonna go for Nightwing and Becky retreats.
04:42I sat down today with Becky Lynch for an interview that will air on the countdown show this coming SummerSlam Sunday.
04:53I asked Becky, what are you scared of?
04:55Are you scared of losing your championship to Lyra Valkyria?
05:00Becky paused for a moment and said, I'm not scared of anything.
05:04I'm a history maker.
05:06Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria on a collision.
