00:00The countdown officially continues!
00:04Just one week from this Saturday, we head to Germany for the historic event BISH! in
00:09Berlin.
00:10Welcome to Main Event!
00:11The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:12Introducing first, from Dublin, Ireland, Clara Valkyria!
00:13Getting the action started tonight with this superstar who took Monday Night Raw by storm
00:35after being drafted from NXT, nearly securing the Queen of the Ring as well as Money in
00:39the Bank and now making her debut here in pursuit of some more feathers on Main Event!
00:48As we welcome you to ringside here, Blake Howard alongside the Hall of Famer, the D-O-double-G,
00:51Brian James and Brian, we are pushing right towards Berlin, a huge couple of days ahead.
00:56And I cannot wait, we're starting off here on Main Event, I got four words for you, this
01:02is Main Event.
01:03Uno, dos, tres.
01:04Very impressive they're counting the fours.
01:05Yeah, well I messed it up a couple of times in rehearsals.
01:24Talk about a homecoming from the 305 right here to the 954, the former MMA fighter with
01:29four professional wins under her belt, winner of the 2023 Women's Breakout Tournament NXT,
01:34makes the short trek here tonight from Miami in her first appearance ever outside of NXT.
01:39And she has got educated feet and hands and so I can't wait to see these literal spitfires
01:47go at it.
01:48Those fists do not lie of Lola Weiss as she takes on Lyra Valkyria here.
01:52Lola Weiss, any relation to Miami?
01:54She's from Miami there, dog, so I guess I could see the comparison.
01:58Okay, I've dated myself here.
01:59As the fists don't lie and the hips don't lie.
02:02I guess they don't.
02:03As Lola getting it started here, huge opportunity tonight against Lyra Valkyria.
02:06Of course, these two have a very decorated history.
02:09You go back to NXT a couple of months back, we talked about Lola, of course, winning that
02:122023 Women's Breakout Tournament, executed her championship opportunity at Vengeance
02:17Day right in the middle of Lyra Valkyria's matchup with Roxanne Perez.
02:21That championship match, that was very bold of her.
02:23Here we go, Lyra into the cover.
02:24Only gets one.
02:25But that's how you make a name for yourself in this industry.
02:29You only get one time to make that first impression.
02:32As Valkyria keeping her foot on the gas early going here.
02:35Backslide only gets two.
02:36As of course, Lyra Valkyria, somewhat of a strike artist in her own right, but Lola Weiss
02:39looking to take over here early on.
02:41And of course, Lola, talk about her being from Miami here, dog.
02:44How emotional is it sleeping in your own bed last night, family in attendance, here for
02:47this huge opportunity?
02:48Oh, well, you definitely feel the home field advantage, I don't know that you actually
02:51have that.
02:52Both of these, you'll see, very matched up in the physicality, the wrestling ability,
02:55the striking ability.
02:56As Lyra into the cover, and Valkyria looks to remain in control here.
03:01You're going for Nightwish early.
03:02Yeah, it's early to try to put somebody away, especially.
03:06Veteran-like maneuver there by Lola Weiss, only been hanging around NXT for a couple
03:10of years now.
03:11Well, well.
03:12But that striking ability.
03:13Clever like a fox, right?
03:16As Lola looks to take control here, of course, Lola Weiss, a viral knockout artist, over
03:19a million followers all throughout social media.
03:21Ooh, first picking up those four wins in Bellator MMA, and she's really starting to establish
03:27her brand in NXT, but right now, Lyra Valkyria looking to go the other direction.
03:31But she better stay on top of it, because Lola Weiss is a master of those MMA skills.
03:37As Valkyria trying to create some separation here, oh, and Lola pulls the leg of Valkyria,
03:42the back of her head connects to that top turnbuckle.
03:45Wow.
03:46And look at Lola Weiss starting to turn it up here a bit, dog.
03:48That did not look good.
03:52As Lola looking to remain in control right now, Lyra Valkyria, that offense screeching
03:57to a halt.
03:58And we talk about that striking ability, dog, right on display there.
04:01Lola hooks the outside leg.
04:02Right to the base of that neck, where she just pulled her legs out from under, and she
04:05hit on that top turnbuckle.
04:06And, dog, we talked about that execution attempt back at Vengeance Day, a title opportunity.
04:11Oh, and look at Lola dialing up a combination right here.
04:15And of course, dog, Lola unsuccessful there, but how much has revenge been on her mind
04:20over the last six months or so?
04:21I don't know.
04:22Naomi called.
04:23She wants her kicks back.
04:24It hasn't been on her mind a lot, but let's just see what happens here.
04:27And, of course, Lola also coming off a recent opportunity against Roxanne Perez, a heat
04:33wave for the NXT Women's Championship.
04:35But you feel that-
04:36Getcha.
04:37Those will getcha.
04:38You feel that Miami spice right there, dog.
04:39Hooks that outside leg.
04:40Lola into the cover.
04:41Wow.
04:42Right on that doorstep.
04:45That was dose and three quarters.
04:46It was right there on the cusp, indeed.
04:47And we talked about the women's division, both on Monday Night Raw, Friday Night Smackdown,
04:51even in NXT, becoming more and more stacked by the day.
04:54Wow.
04:55Look at this.
04:56And look at this impact, dog.
04:57Right here.
04:58Bang!
04:59I was talking about look at the replay.
05:02Get your head out of the gutter, Blake.
05:04See where you're going there, dog.
05:05Giving me Christmas on a crutch.
05:07Lola Weiss once again in control right now.
05:10Oh, my ref might want to check that.
05:12This is a new ref.
05:13I don't believe I know.
05:14I've seen him.
05:15This is referee Jeremy Marcus from NXT.
05:16Jeremy Marcus.
05:17Certainly been right on top of the action as it comes to Lola Weiss.
05:19And, of course, Lyra Valkyria, former NXT Women's Champion, knocked off Becky Lynch
05:23for that championship late in 2023.
05:25Certainly a huge highlight moment there.
05:27And, of course, that happened, dog, on the same event that Lola Weiss won that breakout
05:32tournament.
05:33So these two's careers had a lot of parallels.
05:35Yeah, they've beat each other up several times.
05:37Lola Valkyria coming back the other direction.
05:40Right on the doorstep yet again, but look at Lola Weiss going right back to the attack.
05:44Wow.
05:45Showing that aggression.
05:46We talk about that aggression there because Lyra Valkyria needed more of an edge in these
05:49deeper waters of the Raw Women's Division.
05:51Well, no, I don't think she needs a deeper edge.
05:53Look, she's got core principles and values that make her follow the rules, and that's
05:56who she is as a person.
05:58What you're saying is, will she do anything to win?
06:00And I don't think she's willing to do just anything.
06:02Maybe Lola is.
06:03Is Lola going right back to that well?
06:04Possibly one more time here, dog.
06:06Oh!
06:07No, she's not, by the way.
06:08No, she is not.
06:09And Valkyria exploding out of the corner here.
06:12A strike of her own.
06:14Channeling the spirit of the Morgan.
06:17Oh!
06:19Take it out, Weiss!
06:20And Valkyria trying to turn it up right now.
06:22Lola Weiss, of course, we know her environment, that underground, but right now we're inside
06:27the squared circle where Lyra Valkyria right at home.
06:30Oh!
06:31Wow!
06:32That one caught her right above the ear.
06:33That's a knockout blow.
06:34Lush with the heel there is Valkyria.
06:41And Lyra creates even more separation right there.
06:48Lola down on the outside, and Lyra might start thinking about the end here, dog.
06:52Her running legs may be crossed from that kick, that spin kick, man.
06:56It caught her flush.
06:57We know Valkyria was right on the cusp of that Queen of the Ring tournament, making
07:00it all the way to the finals against Nia Jax, was involved in the Money in the Bank opportunity.
07:04Wow!
07:05High cross body.
07:06Right on the cusp.
07:07Will this do it here for her?
07:08There's been so many close calls in such a short amount of time.
07:11Referee, you mentioned he's on top of it.
07:13You're right.
07:14Indeed, he is.
07:15As Lola Weiss right now.
07:17Clips right out of the bag.
07:18Whoa!
07:19Nightwish.
07:20Whoa!
07:21Will the third time be the charm?
07:22Into position!
07:23And Valkyria connects!
07:24And it's another feather collected!
07:25Here is your winner, Lyra Valkyria!
07:26Lola Weiss in a bit of a homecoming here, her first opportunity on Main Event, certainly
07:40pushed Lyra Valkyria to the limit, but at the end of the day, dog, add one more feather
07:44to the collection.
07:45That bell rings, you can flip a coin sometimes, and it decides your fate, so tonight wasn't
07:50her night.
07:51She put on a heck of a fight here against a veteran in her own right, Lyra Valkyria.
07:59So excited for Lyra here.
08:01Lola Weiss went for the home run swing, Valkyria was able to counter, and Lyra Valkyria picking
08:06up some momentum right here on Main Event.
