WWE Star Addresses Tensions With ‘Friends’ On Raw

WWE

IYO SKY has broken her silence, musing on the challenges of her friendships, after a backstage altercation on WWE Raw.

With the August 18 episode of WWE Raw seeing SKY face off against Raquel Rodriguez, The Genius of the Sky made it clear she didn’t need any help in her match.

SKY would score the victory over the Judgment Day member, only to endure a post-match beatdown at the hands of Roxanne Perez.

This brought out Rhea Ripley, who made the save, sending Perez out of teh ring, before the pair took out Rodriguez for a final time.

While Ripley and SKY celebrated in the ring, things wouldn’t be so cheery backstage when The Kabuki Warriors caught up with the pair.

Asuka had earlier apologized for interfering in SKY’s match last week, costing her a victory over Perez, and would take issue with Ripley’s actions.

With Rhea and Asuka getting into a heated exchange, it would be up to SKY to get in between them, snapping and storming off in a rage.

Asuka would warn Ripley to stay out of their business, with the Kabuki Warriors leaving The Eradicator to mull over the warning and SKY to share her own thoughts on Twitter, posting:

“I won tonight’s Match! However, I have mixed emotions now…

“‘FRIENDS’ can be difficult….”

The post was accompanied by a photo of SKY looked pensive despite her victory and two images from her “crashout” backstage.

The full backstage segment was shared on the WWE YouTube channel, with it being clear that there’s still unresolved issues between the parties.
