This week’s Raw delivered a fiery confrontation between Iyo Sky, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair. What was meant to be a celebration for The Genius of the Sky quickly turned into a battle for the spotlight. Belair and Ripley wasted no time asserting themselves. However, the Japanese superstar refused to be overlooked and forced her way into the spotlight.
Throughout the segment, Belair and Ripley repeatedly sidelined Sky, pushing her out of the spotlight. Frustrated, the Women’s World Champion finally had enough—she stepped up and made a statement. First, she slapped Mami, forcing her back, then delivered another slap to The EST, asserting herself as the top star on Monday Night Raw. And why not? After all, she is the Women’s World Champion.
Moreover, the Japanese superstar stormed to the back, visibly infuriated, while Bianca and Rhea stood puzzled in the ring. Since the start of 2025, Sky has experienced a rollercoaster journey. After failing to win the Royal Rumble, she suffered a crushing defeat to Liv Morgan, seemingly shattering her WrestleMania dreams.
However, while Sky seized her title shot and proved her worth, The EST’s interference lessened her victory’s impact. That said, WWE seems to be steadily building toward a triple threat match between the three stars at WrestleMania 41. With tensions rising, it will be fascinating to see how the road to WrestleMania unfolds.
Iyo Sky to lose her Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania?
Bianca Belair will challenge Iyo Sky for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 41, a blockbuster match that has become a hot topic among the WWE Universe. However, fans are not only debating the winner but also questioning whether Sky can successfully retain her title in Las Vegas.
Before drawing conclusions, Rhea Ripley’s involvement must be addressed. Reports suggest WWE is planning a triple threat match at WrestleMania 41, with Mami invoking her rematch clause against Sky and Belair. If the match becomes a triple threat—which seems likely—Sky’s chances of retaining the Women’s World Championship could be in serious jeopardy.
Belair has never lost a title match at WrestleMania, boasting an impressive record heading into this high-stakes showdown. Meanwhile, The Eradicator is a top star, and it’s unlikely WWE would book her to look weak on The Grandest Stage of Them All. This creates a tough dilemma for Sky, potentially putting her Women’s World Championship reign in jeopardy at WrestleMania 41.
