Reigning WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion Lyra Valkyria is amazed at the growing number of Irish wrestlers in WWE – especially on Raw – but there’s one Irishman who she feels can’t cut it in the company: former UFC champion Conor McGregor.

Speaking to the Irish Mirror, Valkyria felt that McGregor “doesn’t have what it takes” to make it as a WWE superstar while also refusing comment on McGregor’s chances on becoming President of Ireland in the upcoming elections.

Valkyria spoke of the presence of Irish wrestlers in WWE while also looking forward to the company’s stop in the country later this summer:

The amount of Irish on RAW alone is incredible. It’s such a talented bunch to have come from our country, so I’m really proud to be a part of that”

“I can’t believe this is happening while I’m a part of it.. I’m really, really hoping – I know I’m at RAW – that I’m going to be a part of that. I really really need Dublin to be on par with [the European crowds], so if there’s one thing I can get across with this, I hope the Irish doesn’t disappoint me now when we come there!”
