Bayley Attacked Backstage & Pulled from WrestleMania 41, Lyra Valkyria Told to Find New Partner for WWE Women’s Tag Titles Match for Night 2 Show

Saturday’s Countdown to WrestleMania 41 pre-show featured Bayley being pulled from this Sunday’s WrestleMania 41 Night 2 event due to her being seen laying on the ground backstage following an unseen attack that had taken place earlier in the day.

WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion Lyra Valkyria, RAW General Manager Adam Pearce, and medics rushed to attend to Bayley leading to Judgement Day’s Live Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez showing up. Morgan and Rodriguez told Pearce that they had nothing to do with Bayley being attacked. This led to Valkyria stating that she was open to taking on Judgement Day herself which Pearce responded back stating that will not be allowed. Pearce then told Valkyria that she has less than 24 hours to find a new tag team partner for her match against Judgement Day for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship at this Sunday’s Night 2 event.
