A former NXT Ladies’s Champion is becoming a member of Dakota Kai as a semifinalist within the inaugural WWE Ladies’s Intercontinental Championship match. On the December 9 episode of “WWE Uncooked,” Lyra Valkyria was ushered into her triple risk match by rhythmic “woos” from Wichita, Kansas, and with the gang behind her, she soared to victory towards a cruel Ivy Nile and a scrappy Zelina Vega to advance to match semifinals.

Vega practically had the match gained and away with when she related a 6-1-9 onto Valkyria, however Nile had recovered sufficient to drag Vega off the apron with a vengeance. Nobody ladies held the benefit within the match-up for too lengthy. For each maintain Nile had, Valkyria had a roll-up counter. For each pin try made by both lady, Vega answered with some signature aerial offense.
The tide was by no means really in a single competitor’s favor, even within the last moments of match. Vega interrupted Valkyria and Nile’s sequence of suplexes with a Code Crimson, and tried to pin Nile for the victory. Valkyria broke up the pin try, and related with a Night time Wing to degree Vega for the win. Wichita continued their melody of “woos” as Valkyria celebrated a momentous step to turning into the first-ever Ladies’s Intercontinental Champion.
