Rhea Ripley’s Feud With The Kabuki Warriors
The Kabuki Warriors are involved in a feud with Ripley and former Damage CTRL stablemate Sky. The issues began when Asuka constantly offered Sky help in her WWE Women’s World Championship matches. Sky turned down Asuka’s assistance, and soon “The Empress of Tomorrow” would grow jealous of Sky’s friendship with Ripley.
During the Sept. 22 episode of “Monday Night Raw,” Asuka spat mist in the eyes of Sky. Sane then delivered an Insane Elbow to Sky to solidify The Kabuki Warriors’ heel turn. Asuka and Sane were defeated by Sky and Ripley in a tag team match during the “Wrestlepalooza” PLE.
Ripley hadn’t been seen on WWE TV since October, as she suffered a nose injury during the company’s tour in Japan. Sky’s last appearance was also in October, as WWE’s creative team saved her for Ripley’s return.
WWE had been teasing a potential women’s WarGames match at “Survivor Series 2025.” At the conclusion of “Monday Night Raw,” Ripley challenged The Kabuki Warriors, Jax, and Legend to a WarGames match.
