WWE officially confirms new Rhea Ripley team, unveils their name 

Rhea Ripley was attacked by Asuka and Kairi Sane last night on WWE RAW, and Iyo Sky made the save but was also attacked by her former Damage CTRL teammates.

While Iyo Sky has now officially been kicked out of her team, it appears that she has been handed a new one. The former Women's Champion has officially been added to a team with Rhea Ripley, and the company recently christened the team "RHIYO" as part of their social media post.

In case anyone was in doubt, it seems that the plan could now be for Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky to team up to take on Asuka and Kairi Sane, potentially at the upcoming Crown Jewel event in Ripley's home country of Australia.

Following their attack on last night's show, the two women headed backstage together, helping each other up the ramp, which led to WWE sharing a heartwarming video of the duo.

Sky and Ripley have been friends for several months, but this has clearly come between her friendship with Asuka and Kairi Sane. Much like Kairi, Sky believed that Asuka was the reason she was in this place in her career, which made her reluctant to move against her.

Asuka turned on Iyo Sky because of Rhea Ripley

Asuka has had an issue with Ripley for weeks, but after she was defeated last night on RAW, Asuka attacked and when Iyo Sky made the save, the Empress finally decided that she had reached her limit.

She turned on Sky and chose for her, pushing her into an alliance with Ripley, which will now force her to go up against two women that she calls family.

Sky and Ripley have already shown they have each other's back, so it will be an interesting matchup if it takes place at Crown Jewel.
