BREAKING: Iyo Sky Moves On To The Queen Of The Ring Finals

After earning her stripes in the Japanese indie wrestling circuit, Iyo Sky made the decision to move to the United States in pursuit of new challenges — a risk that paid off for her career. | WWE (The Japan Times)

In what was a thrilling and grueling opening match on the June 15, 2026 edition of Monday Night RAW, the Genius of the Sky, Iyo Sky, defeats Raquel Rodriguez of The Judgement Day and moves on to the June 27 Queen of the Ring Finals at Night of Champions at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

An important to note to make is that there was no outside interference from any fellow members of The Judgement Day, such as the current WWE Women's World Champion Liv Morgan. The Sky vs Rodriguez match, as a result, was an exceptional match, and is perhaps not only the best match of the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments combined, but is perhaps one of the best matches Sky has ever put together.

Tune in to Friday Night SmackDown June 19, live from the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern Time / 5 p.m. Pacific Time for the second and final Queen of the Ring Semifinals match, where the WWE Women's World Champion Liv Morgan faces off against the Queen herself, Charlotte Flair. The winner of that match will face Iyo Sky in the June 27 Queen of the Ring Finals at Night of Champions at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
