IYO SKY and Asuka’s Alliance Implodes on WWE RAW – The closing moments of last night’s WWE RAW signaled the apparent end of the partnership between IYO SKY and Asuka. Following Asuka’s hard-fought loss to Rhea Ripley, the former WWE Women’s Champion unleashed her signature green mist on Ripley. SKY rushed to the ring in an attempt to help, seemingly trying to prevent further chaos. At first, Asuka appeared to calm down, but she suddenly struck SKY and sent her crashing to the floor.
Asuka then turned her attention to Kairi Sane, demanding that she continue the assault. Sane initially hesitated, conflicted over attacking her former Damage CTRL partner, but ultimately followed Asuka’s lead. Together, Asuka and Sane stood tall over both SKY and Ripley as RAW went off the air, making a dramatic statement that their allegiance now lies with each other—and not with SKY.
This shocking betrayal has been building for weeks. Asuka had grown visibly frustrated with SKY for refusing help from her and Kairi during matches, most notably at Wrestlepalooza where SKY fell short in her Women’s World Championship match against Stephanie Vaquer. Kairi, meanwhile, has been portrayed as reluctantly siding with Asuka, often following her commands despite clear hesitation.
Earlier in the night, Ripley had issued the challenge for the match after confronting Asuka backstage, fed up with her arrogance. Before the contest began, SKY approached Ripley and pleaded with her to cancel the match, insisting that Asuka was like family. Ripley refused, warning SKY to be careful, which only fueled SKY’s frustration and set the stage for the explosive conclusion.
With Asuka and Kairi now seemingly united against both SKY and Ripley, the fallout from this betrayal promises to shake up WWE’s women’s division in the weeks ahead.
