In WrestleMania 41, Iyo Sky proved that she was not overlooked by maintaining the women’s world championship against Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair. In a recent behind-the-scenes look at WrestleMania 41, Stone Cold Steve Austin praised Sky after her victory.
“That f***ing match was a killer!
These comments hit Sky deeply, considering they came from a true icon in WWE. Taking to X, Sky shared that “life is beautiful” and following Austin’s comments, he encouraged others to “follow your dreams.”
Aiyo Skye was taking action that was not a post-WrestleMania title as she fought against WWE NXT women’s champion Stephanie Verker during the RAW after WrestleMania. Before Ripley could make a save, their match was interrupted by Roxanne Perez and Julia, indicating that she was not a genius of the sky.
Sky’s victory shows immense faith in her as WWE defeated two women who had been standing on the WWE women’s roster for many years. And while the story heading for Las Vegas was that both Ripley and Bel Air were more concentrated on each other than the champions, Mami and EST would never make that mistake again.
