Lyra Valkyria gets her nose busted open by Bayley

One of the featured matches at tonight’s (Sat., July 18, 2026) Saturday Night’s Main Event streaming special from Madison Square Garden in New York City on Peacock saw good friends turned bitter enemies Bayley and Lyra Valkyria link up for a singles match after the latter turned on the former. The match hardly had any time to get underway before Bayley threw a shot that appeared to be headed for Lyra’s midsection but ended up with an elbow crashing hard into her face. She was busted open badly right away. Lyra Valkyria’s nose is completely busted open after Bayley accidentally elbows Valkyria in the face on the attempted forearm/elbow shot, holy shit. THIS looked BRUTAL. #SNME pic.twitter.com/jq69OcHrv3 — PW Chronicle (@_PWChronicle) July 19, 2026 The referee tended to Lyra off camera very briefly, and you could see how much blood she spilled on the outside mat when the camera finally panned over.
