WWE kicked off its road to WrestleMania with full force on last night’s Raw. In a high-stakes clash, Iyo Sky and Liv Morgan with a WrestleMania opportunity on the line. However, an unexpected interference from Rhea Ripley inadvertently cost Iyo the match, allowing Morgan to secure the victory. The incident has now sparked tensions between Ripley and Sky, adding another layer of drama to the road ahead.
Following Raw, Sky took to X to react to the controversial outcome of her match, simply stating that she was speechless about her Road to WrestleMania. Sky had battled Morgan for a coveted spot inside the Elimination Chamber, but an unintentional interference from Ripley cost her the match. Now, with her path to WrestleMania uncertain, Sky’s next move remains a mystery.
The Genius of the Sky looked visibly frustrated even as Ripley attempted to console her after the match. Following her Royal Rumble loss, this bout was crucial for the Japanese superstar, making the outcome even more disheartening. To make matters worse, Sky currently finds herself without the support of her close allies, Dakota Kai and Kairi Sane, leaving her to navigate these tough times alone.

Speculation is swirling that Iyo Sky could still be in line for a major title match at WrestleMania. Many believed she had a strong chance of winning the Royal Rumble until Charlotte Flair’s surprise entry shifted expectations. Now, the 34-year-old faces an uphill battle to secure her WrestleMania moment. With tensions brewing, a potential showdown with Ripley at Mania may still be on the horizon.
Iyo Sky to face Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania despite recent string of losses?
Iyo Sky has been a cornerstone of Raw’s women’s division for nearly a year, yet major opportunities have continued to elude her in recent months. Her clash with Liv Morgan at December’s Saturday Night’s Main Event ended in disappointment, adding to her string of setbacks. However, hope is not lost, as there’s still a chance that Sky could find her way to a high-stakes showdown with Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania.
WWE first teased a potential clash between Sky and Morgan back in December, and since then, the two have crossed paths multiple times. The company had been positioning The Genius of the Sky as a top contender, hinting at a bigger opportunity on the horizon. With this ongoing buildup, it’s likely that Triple H has significant plans in store for both stars as the Road to WrestleMania unfolds.
Sky may still have a path to the Elimination Chamber match, with WWE potentially granting her a last-chance opportunity in the coming weeks. Such a move could not only keep her WrestleMania hopes alive but also set the stage for a future showdown with Rhea Ripley. Given the ongoing storyline developments, this seems to be the most likely direction WWE will take in the weeks ahead.
