WWE's Iyo Sky vs. Rey Mysterio: A Controversial Comparison
In a dramatic turn of events, WWE Women's World Champion Iyo Sky is dominating the "Raw" Women's Division. Following her stunning victory in a Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania, comparisons to the legendary Rey Mysterio began swirling. But not everyone is on board with this notion, especially WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash.
When a fan of the podcast "Kliq This" suggested that Iyo Sky could be likened to wrestling icon Rey Mysterio, Nash fiercely objected, stating, "If you're telling me that Iyo [Sky] is the female equivalent of Rey Mysterio, I say f****** bull****. Rey Mysterio's one in a billion!" He further clarified that while he has no personal issue with Sky, he finds other female wrestlers, like Sol Ruca, far more comparable due to their impressive athleticism.
Sol Ruca: The Rising Star Making Waves
Sol Ruca has also been making headlines, fresh off her win during WrestleMania weekend. She claimed victory in a high-stakes six-woman ladder match for the vacant WWE NXT Women's North American Championship at NXT Stand & Deliver. This title had been vacated after previous champion Stephani Vaquer found it challenging to defend both her titles.
Ruca's triumph in the ladder match marked her second singles championship within WWE, adding the NXT title to her earlier success as the WWE Speed Women's Champion. She secured that title by defeating inaugural champion Candice LeRae, showcasing her talent during the Women's Speed Tournament.
Rey Mysterio: The Icon's Absence at WrestleMania
Despite the buzz around the women's division, Rey Mysterio was notably absent from WrestleMania this year. An injury forced him to withdraw from a highly anticipated match against El Grande Americano, also known as Chad Gable. Instead, Rey Fenix stepped in but was ultimately defeated, aided by AAA star El Hijo Del Vikingo who was there after AAA's acquisition by WWE.
As the WWE landscape evolves, the debates on who stands out are sure to continue, but Nash’s bold stance certainly adds fuel to the fire.
