Michael Cole concerned for major WWE star at Backlash 2025; calls possible injury

A WWE star appeared to be injured at Backlash 2025. Michael Cole expressed concern for the star.

Lyra Valkyria and Bayley were set to challenge for the Women's Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania 41. However, The Role Model was attacked backstage before the show could begin, and Becky Lynch took her spot in the match. Lyra and Lynch won the titles from Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, only to lose them the following night on RAW. After losing the title, Lynch turned on her tag team partner and assaulted her, setting up a match for the Women's Intercontinental Championship at Backlash 2025.

During the bout, both women delivered an incredible match, but it was Lyra Valkyria who picked up the win. Lynch was visibly upset over the loss and immediately attacked her former friend, locking her in the Disarm-Her. Meanwhile, Michael Cole exclaimed that Lyra may have suffered a broken nose. The Women's Intercontinental Champion also held her nose while she was locked in the Disarm-Her, suggesting that she might be injured.

This is the second time Lyra Valkyria has pinned Becky Lynch in a singles match. They previously faced off at Halloween Havoc 2023.
