The former Damage CTRL member pointed out that she and Mami were completely different from each other. The Japanese star noted that she was not as cool as Ripley. However, SKY opined that the stark contrast in their in-ring style was the reason behind their great in-ring chemistry.
"I think we are totally different person. I think ‘cause she's tall, she's muscle, and she's so cool. I'm not cool as Rhea Ripley. Yeah, she's super cool. Even when I just having casual conversation to look at her, she's so cool. Like, ‘Oh my God.’ Sometimes, I feel like a fan. […] She’s so nice and muscle. I'm running fast. I'm so small, but I can flip and she's not so flipping person like so much opposite. That's why I think we are making great chemistry," she said.IYO SKY says her match against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley at Wrestlemania 41 is her favorite match that she wrestled -on Insight with Chris Van Vliet
