In a new interview with SHAK Wrestling, Valkyrie talked about how she knows her worth as a performer and how she wants to focus her energy in one place as opposed to multiple different places.

“Uhm, I think because when you’re working for all of these promotions and stuff, you’re pulled in a million different directions. For me, it’s been what I’ve needed coming out of such a darker spot in my career, which was unfortunately my experience with WWE. I was ready to work. I only had six matches in 2021, six. I was ready to bump and feed, I was ready to be creative and cut a promo and do everything. I think that now, I’m just ready to kind of focus my energy in one place as opposed to being pulled in all these different directions because I know what I bring to the table as a performer, as an athlete is very special, and I know my worth. I just really wanna work and make an impression and continue to build my legacy. For now, I'm still incredibly happy working absolutely everywhere. I'm not a person to sit at home and sit still and drink a tea and talk about the weather. I’ve never been like that, I get bored very easily, so this has really kept me on my toes and kept me inspired and motivated. We’ll see what happens this year. I’ll just keep moving along and being the Taya Valkyrie that everyone knows.”

In 2023 alone, Valkyrie has already wrestled for MLW, AAA, and IMPACT Wrestling on numerous occasions. She is currently the MLW Women's World Featherweight Champion, the AAA Reina de Reinas Champion, and one half of the IMPACT Knockouts Tag Team Champions.
