Japanese professional wrestlers are slowly shining more and more in WWE, and Iyo Sky is slowly stepping up to be the best Japanese wrestler to ever work in WWE. This claim cannot be made at this moment since there is Asuka, who has also done a tremendous job in the promotion, and she also stands as a four time World Champion.
Iyo Sky made her main roster debut during SummerSlam 2022, and she was portrayed as a teammate of Bayley along with Dakota Kai. Together, their faction was famously known as The Damage CTRL. Sky won the WWE Women's Championship while being a part of this faction, and he even defended the Championship against Bayley at WrestleMania XL.
Iyo Sky reveals the unique WWE record she has
She is also the first WWE star to win both the new WWE Women's Championship and the Women's World Championship after the titles got renamed. Recently, she reminded everyone of another huge, unique record she holds in WWE while speaking with the Japan Times. Here is what she had to say;
Iyo Sky is a two times World Champion in WWE
“Japanese professional wrestling is more like a ‘sports broadcast,’ so wrestlers only need to concentrate on the match. But WWE is a TV program, so the match and drama need to be conveyed to viewers through the camera. To do this, while fighting opponents during a match, wrestlers do countless other things simultaneously — all in English. It’s no exaggeration to say that it’s completely different from a match in Japan.”
She is presently having a rivalry with the Kabuki Warriors
“I’m apparently the first Japanese woman to win at WrestleMania. And since it was also a defense of WWE’s most prestigious title, it was definitely the greatest moment of my life. Not just the result but also being with the best wrestlers in Bianca and Rhea. I was able to take on the best stage, the best performers, the best match, and make the most of history.”
Iyo Sky is presently having an amazing storyline with her Japanese fellow worker, Asuka, and Kairi Sane. The Kabuki Warriors have turned heel on her, and they are having a rivalry at this moment. Presently, she is out of the World Championship picture, but we can expect her to return to the main event scene soon.
