“I am the greatest luchador that has ever lived. I am the greatest NXT North American Champion ever. And I beat Dragon Lee tonight with my deadbeat dad by his side. So I’m the greatest NXT North American champion ever.”
Rhea said,
“Lyra Valkyria? You’re kidding me right now. First you disrespect my Latino Heat and then you disrespect Mami herself by bringing up Lyra Valkyria. […] I came here and told everyone she was a badass. I believed in her, I gave her some advice, and what does she do? She disrespects me and my Latino Heat. You don’t want to make Mami mad. And that’s exactly what she has done.”
