Stephanie Vaquer Appears Without Walking Boot at WWE SNME – Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY successfully defended the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships against Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez on the January 24 edition of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event. The bout marked the second match of the night and the first contest to officially get underway after Cody Rhodes vs. Jacob Fatu ended in a wild brawl before the opening bell.
From the opening moments, all four competitors pushed the pace and kept the crowd engaged. Morgan and Perez showed strong chemistry, isolating IYO SKY and using quick tags to maintain control. Perez, in particular, came close to scoring a massive upset when she connected with Pop Rocks on IYO. With Ripley unable to break it up in time, the arena held its breath, but IYO managed to kick out at the last possible moment, keeping the champions alive.
Ripley and IYO gradually shifted momentum through their trademark combination offense. Ripley used her power to neutralize Morgan and Perez, while IYO relied on speed and precision to create openings. The champions appeared poised to finish the match when Ripley delivered a Riptide to Roxanne Perez, followed by IYO SKY’s Over The Moonsault.
However, the match took a sudden turn when Raquel Rodriguez interfered, pulling the referee out of position and attacking both champions. With the official down, Rodriguez dismantled Ripley and IYO, seemingly tilting the match in favor of Morgan and Perez. The interference was short-lived, though, as Stephanie Vaquer made a surprise return and immediately targeted Rodriguez.
Notably absent was the walking boot Vaquer had been wearing in recent weeks. She took down Rodriguez with authority, clearing the ring and allowing order to be restored. With the distraction removed and the referee recovering, Ripley and IYO regained control and secured the pinfall to retain their championships.
The WWE Women’s Tag Team division has become increasingly unpredictable. This match reinforced that trend, combining high-level in-ring action with storyline developments that could have major implications moving forward.
