The Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 came to a thrilling end over the weekend with England edging out Canada in a cross-Atlantic final – and shred hero Sophie Lloyd was handpicked to open the show.
Lloyd blended her original song Battleground with Bon Jovi's undeniable banger, Livin' on a Prayer, wielding her Kiesel Aries signature guitar for the occasion. It was a scintillating showing, one made even more impressive by the fact Lloyd shredded solo in front of 82,000.
