This will be Valkyria’s first time competing for OTT in more than five years. She had one Women’s title reign during her time in the promotion. In WWE, Valkyria is a member of the Raw roster and is a former NXT Women’s Champion.
Two other Irish WWE stars — Finn Balor & JD McDonagh — have also appeared for OTT Wrestling this year. They were involved with the promotion’s 10th anniversary event last month, winning a tag team match against Matthew Smyth & Sean Guinness.
The December 21 OTT event is named The Dream Before Christmas and is taking place from The Complex in Dublin.
