IYO SKY Vs Rhea Ripley Set for WWE Evolution 2 – Despite WWE heavily advertising that Rhea Ripley would kick off the June 30 episode of RAW with a “special huge message,” the promised announcement never quite came from “Mami” herself. Instead, the major development unfolded as part of her interrupted promo segment.
As the show began, Ripley entered the ring and briefly questioned her direction, hinting that she needed to get her priorities in order. Before she could expand, the entrance theme of IYO SKY blared through the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh. The WWE Women’s World Champion confidently made her way to the ring, mimicking Ripley’s signature entrance pose to the crowd’s reaction.
Once in the ring, SKY informed Ripley—and the WWE Universe—that RAW General Manager Adam Pearce had officially given her the authority to select her next title challenger. With no hesitation, SKY made it clear that she wanted to defend her WWE Women’s World Championship against the very best. She looked Ripley in the eye and declared her intent.
It was then made official: IYO SKY will defend her title against Rhea Ripley at WWE Evolution 2, set for July 13 at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
The announcement instantly elevated the all-women’s premium live event, as it sets the stage for what could be one of the most hard-hitting and anticipated women’s matches of the year. Ripley, without a definitive challenger for months, now has a clear target. For SKY, it’s a chance to further cement her status by defeating one of WWE’s most dominant figures.
With two of WWE’s strongest female athletes now locked in for a title clash, Evolution 2 just got a lot more exciting.
