Becky Lynch has returned to WWE as a heel, and she is nailing it. She tried everything she could, from distracting referees to exposing a turnbuckle to get her hands on the Intercontinental title. Lyra Valkyria, however, stood up against everything her opponent threw at her and proved her mettle against the veteran. She defended her title in the process but also suffered an injury while doing so.
Lyra Valkyria might have suffered a broken nose during the match, as informed twice by the commentator, Michael Cole. She was holding her nose during the closing moments of the match. She pinned Becky Lynch with one hand while her other hand was covering her nose. Her nose might not be the only thing that’s hurting, as Becky Lynch made sure the Intercontinental Champion goes through hell while defending her title.

Becky Lynch didn’t take the loss kindly and started an assault on the champion, and officials had to intervene and break the armbar. Lyra Valkyria was still holding her nose while the referee announced her victorious and handed her the belt. She is sure to receive medical attention as soon as she goes backstage.
