Iyo Sky Beats Asuka at WWE Backlash With Over the Moonsault

Overview

• Sky pinned Asuka with the Over the Moonsault at Backlash in Tampa on Saturday.
• It was their first meeting since Kairi Sane’s WWE release, and fans chanted “We want Kairi.”
• Asuka hugged Sky after the bell, a moment that suggested the feud may be finished.
• The rivalry began when Asuka and Sane turned on Sky in Damage CTRL, their former faction, and it spiked on April 27 when Asuka interfered in Sky’s Women’s Intercontinental title match against Becky Lynch.
• Analysts say the win could steer Sky back toward the women’s title picture.
