Three signs that Iyo Sky will turn on Rhea Ripley before at WWE Crown Jewel 2025

Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley are all set to face The Kubuki Warriors at WWE Crown Jewel 2025

Iyo Sky’s partnership with Rhea Ripley ahead of WWE Crown Jewel is on shaky ground. The two stars are scheduled to team up against the Kabuki Warriors, Asuka and Kairi Sane, on October 11, but trust issues are already bubbling beneath the surface. On WWE RAW (September 29, 2025), Ripley openly questioned whether she could rely on Sky, while the latter tried to assure her.

Yet, subtle cracks in their alliance have made many believe that Iyo Sky could turn on Ripley when the lights shine brightest. The Eradicator may think she has a partner, but the seeds of betrayal are already being planted. Here are three signs that Sky could side against Ripley in the coming weeks.

3. Iyo Sky’s love for her family is pretty visible

Iyo Sky’s connection to Asuka and Kairi Sane runs deep. The three women share a long history, and Sky sees them more as family than rivals. Even when Ripley reminded her of the Kabuki Warriors’ recent attack, Sky’s hesitation to fully turn her back on them was obvious.

On RAW, Sky appeared conflicted, torn between loyalty to her roots and her current alliance. While she told Ripley she would face Asuka and Kairi at Crown Jewel, her reluctance was clear. That emotional tug-of-war could play a major role in what unfolds when the bell rings.

2. Iyo Sky has been very half-hearted facing The Kabuki Warriors

Sky’s hesitation is another red flag. Despite being attacked by Asuka last week, she still seemed unwilling to go all out against her old partners. Instead of showing fire, she came across as conflicted, almost searching for a way to mend things with them rather than fight.

This opens the door for a shocking twist at Crown Jewel. Sky could secretly strike a deal with Asuka and Kairi, choosing to betray Ripley at the perfect moment. Such a move would not only protect her ties with the Kabuki Warriors but also make her one of WWE’s most unpredictable players once again.

1. Asuka’s offer is still on the table

Asuka may have attacked Sky, but she also extended an olive branch. She made it clear that Sky could return to the fold if she apologized. That kind of offer is difficult to ignore, especially for someone who once stood side by side with Asuka and Kairi in Damage CTRL.

Sky has proven in the past that she thrives as a heel. Her loyalty has always leaned more toward her Japanese sisters than outsiders like Ripley. If forced to choose, the chances are high that she will pick her long-time allies over her temporary partner. Crown Jewel could be the stage where that decision becomes reality.
