During a recent interview with Denise Salcedo, SKY detailed her long history with Rhea Ripley. She mentioned how the two stars made it through developmental together.

“We’ve been friends since I joined NXT, which is 2018. Now it’s 2026, and it’s been eight years. She’s always been next to me, even in front of me, like against also as a tag team. We had so much history in NXT, and that’s why we are here, why not? We’re friends, we could be friends in the ring too.”

IYO SKY added that the two stars knew and respected each other’s abilities in the ring. She revealed that Rhea was physically well-conditioned and would get back up even after some stiff shots from IYO, and she would do the same.

“I respect her. Also, she’s strong, and she’s always in good condition. She’s an amazing wrestler. I trust her. And maybe she trusted me, my wrestling ability, or something like that. As a wrestler, I hit her strong, I know, she’ll get up. And she knows I’ll get up even if she hits me strong. That’s why we make great chemistry in the ring.”

IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley were in action on RAW

This past week on RAW, the Women’s Tag Team Champions teamed up with the Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer to take on the Judgment Day in a six-woman tag team match.

The chaotic matchup was filled with nearfalls as momentum swayed from one team to another. However, Rhea Ripley won the match with a Riptide on Liv Morgan.

The Women’s Tag Team Champions will soon face Lash Legend and Nia Jax, who became the number one contenders after winning a triple threat match on SmackDown last week.
