Bayley and Lyra Valkyria are currently embroiled in a heated rivalry on Monday Night Raw. The two people who once stood by each other have now become bitter rivals after Lyra's shocking betrayal a few weeks ago. Both superstars came face-to-face this week on RAW, where Valkyria gave a ruthless validation of her actions. She made some bitter remarks at The Role Model to belittle her while rubbing salt in her old scars.

    As a result, Bayley ended up challenging the 29-year-old to a match at Saturday Night's Main Event XLV. The two superstars are now set to collide in a blockbuster clash this Saturday at Madison Square Garden to unravel a new layer in their heated feud. Fans could witness a maelstrom of chaos in this match, which may ultimately stretch this rivalry all the way to SummerSlam 2026. But the biggest highlight will remain how this match ends.

    Let's take a look at four possible finishes of the Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria match at Saturday Night's Main Event:

    Since backstabbing Bayley, Lyra Valkyria has stepped into a much darker and colder version of herself. She has apparently given up her heroic ideals and fans could witness the same at Saturday Night's Main Event. The two superstars could deliver an incredible match at Madison Square Garden, driven by pure hatred for each other. During the climax of the bout, The Role Model may have the upper hand and she may go for her finisher to wrap up the match.

    However, Lyra Valkyria could shockingly counter it in a huge roll-up. She could duck underneath, hook Bayley's leg, and roll her up for a quick three count. Before The Role Model even realizes her shoulders were down, Valkyria could roll back out of the ring, clutching her ribs but smiling as her music plays. This finish would protect The Role Model while instantly catapulting Lyra, proving that she has the ring awareness to outsmart a Grand Slam Champion.

    The rivalry between Bayley and Lyra Valkyria has just kicked off, and therefore their upcoming match may serve as the catalyst for a huge SummerSlam clash. The two superstars could deliver a back-and-forth action throughout the bout, but The Role Model may dominate in the final few minutes. She could drag Valkyria outside the ring and pound her into the steel steps, thrust her into the poles, and slam her on the announce table.

    Unable to evade the punishment, a frustrated Lyra could hit Bayley with a foreign substance, possibly a steel chair, knocking her lights out. The referee could immediately call for the bell, ending the match in a disqualification. The crowd may shower a chorus of boos for Valkyria, solidifying her as a diabolical heel and accentuating her new persona. Meanwhile, such a finish would leave the business unfinished, setting up a high-stakes rematch for SummerSlam.

    Bayley has been the top star in the women's division and she could prove it at Saturday Night's Main Event by beating Lyra Valkyria. The two superstars may deliver a grueling match involving jaw-dropping sequences and near-falls. However, the turning point may come down to a single mistake when an overconfident Valkyria may mock her former friend in the middle of the match. And this could give The Role Model a chance to swiftly turn the tables in her favor.

    She could hit the 29-year-old with her finisher to grab a huge pinfall victory. However, her celebrations could be short-lived as Lyra Valkyria could immediately launch a brutal attack on Bayley from behind after the match. She could unleash a barbaric assault on the veteran, unleashing her rage upon the loss. The post-match attack would pave the way for another clash between the two former friends, perhaps with a huge stipulation at WWE SummerSlam.

    A double countout finish is designed to showcase an absolute war of attrition where neither woman is willing to back down. During the climax of the match at Saturday Night's Main Event, the action could spill outside the ring. Bayley and Lyra Valkyria may brawl with each other at the ringside, turning the entire arena into a warzone. Meanwhile, the referee may ask them to get back in the ring while starting his count.

    However, neither of them may pay attention to the match official. Instead of rushing back into the ring, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria might engage in a chaotic brawl in the audience, exchanging blows. The referee may reach the count of eight, nine and finally ten, after which he may end this match in a double countout. The bell might ring, but the two superstars may barely notice. They could continue to tear each other apart, prompting the referees to run down to separate them.
