IYO SKY Challenges Women’s Tag Champs After WWE Raw; Bianca Belair Responds
Despite being significantly outpowered, IYO SKY achieved a noteworthy and decisive singles win over Bianca Belair on the September 16 edition of “WWE Raw.” Following this victory, SKY, alongside her Damage CTRL teammate Kairi Sane, has issued a challenge to Belair and her partner Jade Cargill for a chance at the Women’s Tag Team Championship. SKY took to X to declare, “I proved tonight with a three-count that we deserve the women’s tag titles. We want to challenge Bianca and Jade!!!!”
In response, “The EST” posted on X: “I [see] you [IYO SKY] I’ll give it to you … You did your Big 1 tonight. Let me know when you wanna run it back. … Or bring ya tagteam partna and then we can all really have some fun! Our Women’s division is [fire]”
Belair and Cargill’s clear win over Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn on the September 9 “Raw” indicates that the champions are prepared for new challengers. WWE’s upcoming premium live event, Bad Blood, is scheduled for Saturday, October 5, with only four matches officially announced so far. Nia Jax is expected to defend her Women’s Championship against either Bayley or Naomi, and a World Heavyweight Championship match between GUNTHER and Sami Zayn is being heavily promoted. This suggests that the women’s tag match might be scheduled later or featured on TV. Meanwhile, SKY’s tag team partner Sane recently required five stitches for an eye injury sustained from a top-rope dive during the September 9 “Raw.”
