Women's Tag Team Champions Challenged by IYO SKY After WWE Raw; Bianca Bellair Responds

Send Push
On the September 16 episode of " WWE Raw ," IYO SKY defeated Bianca Belair in the singles with remarkable grace, despite being clearly outmatched in height and strength. The victory was a noteworthy achievement for SKY, who now challenges Bianca Belair and her tag team partner Jade Cargill for a chance to defend the Women's Tag Team Championship with Kairi Sane and Damage CTRL. In a bold move, SKY took to X (formerly Twitter) to make her intentions clear, stating, "I proved tonight by a three count that we are worthy of the women's tag titles. We want to challenge Bianca and Jade!!!!"



In reply, Bianca Belair, known as "The EST," responded on X with her own statement addressing the challenge. She acknowledged SKY’s performance by saying, "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]."

The September 9 episode of "Raw," in which Belair and Cargill prevailed decisively against Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn after a string of close battles, suggests that the champions are truly prepared to take on fresh opponents. There are now just four confirmed matches for Saturday, October 5th's Bad Blood, the next major WWE show. While there is a lot of anticipation for a World Heavyweight Championship bout between GUNTHER and Sami Zayn, Nia Jax is expected to defend her Women's Championship against either Naomi or Bayley. This arrangement implies that the Women's Tag Team Championship match may be aired on a regular TV show or arranged for a later date.

Additionally, IYO SKY's tag team partner Kairi Sane recently suffered an injury that required five stitches to her eye after a particularly dangerous top-rope dive to the floor during the September 9 episode of "Raw." This injury might affect their preparations, but the challenge to Belair and Cargill remains a prominent storyline as the WWE heads towards its upcoming events.
