Brand-new women's championship would be incredible for the division, says popular WWE star
WWE's landscape has changed drastically under Triple H's leadership and The Game could be the one to introduce more new titles in the company. Recently, Lyra Valkyria stated she would like to see a Women's Intercontinental Championship as it would be an incredible opportunity for the women's division.
Earlier this year, Lyra Valkyria made her main roster debut on Monday Night RAW and stacked wins under her belt as she headed to the final of the Queen of the Ring Tournament. The former NXT Women's Champion lost to Nia Jax at the premium live event in Saudi Arabia.
In an interview on Ten Count Media, Valkyria stated an Intercontinental Championship for the women's division would be incredible for the roster. She also hoped to enter the tournament for the WWE Speed Women's Championship in the coming month.
"I think an Intercontinental title for the women's would be incredible. It's kind of known as the workhorse title and I think we've got so many hard-working, that are still waiting for a chance to step up and show what they can do. And, that [Women's Intercontinental Championship] would provide that opportunity for them. So, of course that would be incredible. We've got the upcoming Women's Speed tournament, hoping to be involved in that myself. It's really a great time to be a women's wrestler on Monday Night RAW," Valkyria said. [From 11:18 to 11:46]
