00:00Oh, and the perfect pairing!
00:04The genius of the sky, EO Sky, with Rhea Ripley by her side.
00:08EO to meet her former friend, Kyrie Sane, one-on-one.
00:12This comes after a wild scene in the women's tag team division,
00:16as wild as we've seen, to close out last week's Raw.
00:19The following contest is scheduled for one song.
00:32Introducing guests, accompanied by Rhea Ripley!
00:39From Tokyo, Japan, EO Sky!
00:46From WarGames winner to now this, EO Sky, Rhea Ripley by her side.
00:52They were setting the course for tag team success.
00:55And all hell broke loose, as you saw with the Kabuki Warriors last week.
00:59It's been months of danger and all-out action between EO and Kyrie.
01:03They go one-on-one next.
01:12Kyrie Sane, with Asuka there supporting her.
01:16They've done everything possible to block the forward march of EO Sky and Rhea Ripley.
01:20It wasn't long ago, Wade, that Kyrie was emotionally torn over breaking from EO.
01:24That is long gone from her conscience.
01:29Oh, the ruler is here!
01:31Obafemi!
01:32How about the fall from Grace?
01:34It's a power slam that hit on Ricky Sings the other day to recapture the NXT title.
01:38That was scary.
01:38Well, NXT's champ, the domineering Obafemi.
01:43He gets a massive, massive test this Saturday at Saturday night's main event.
01:51When he takes on the WWE champ, the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
01:57What a spectacle that is going to be.
02:01Obafemi, who has been hyped up for the past 12 months.
02:04And he's backed up every single word of it.
02:07The biggest test of his career so far at Saturday night's main event.
02:11He is such a physical force.
02:13And then you have these two dynamos to start things off here.
02:18We're all live on Netflix from T-Mobile Center here in Kansas City.
02:22EO Sky and Kairi Sane.
02:29Now, crowd support for EO has been something.
02:32So we've got action really heating up in the women's tag division as we saw moments ago.
02:37Five separate teams including the champs, the Kabuki Warriors.
02:41Really have state their claim to be the top team right here on Raw.
02:45Now, the champs, the Kabuki Warriors, did indeed compete against Rhea Ripley and EO Sky.
02:53A few weeks back, the crown jewel in Perth.
02:56And that was a match that Rhea Ripley and EO Sky won.
02:59Certainly had some weight to their claim that they can beat the tag champs.
03:03And a victory here for EO Sky will magnify that claim even further.
03:10What a great moment here for Kairi Sane early on.
03:12And then the counter from EO.
03:14Sliding down, pinning combination from EO Sky.
03:20Back and forth they go, a quick pace weight early on.
03:23Yeah, these two stars know each other so well.
03:25Look at this from Sky.
03:27Going to go X-Bag, there's going counter for counter, reversal for reversal.
03:31You kind of know what your opponent is going to throw at you before they even do it.
03:36But right now in the early goings, it's EO Sky with the upper hand here.
03:40You bring up the fact of how well they know each other.
03:43How does that factor into what we see?
03:45Right now it has been all about EO Sky.
03:48Who's just been a step ahead of Kairi Sane.
03:50But things may be changing before our eyes, Joe.
03:54Yeah, Sane mocking EO Sky.
03:58Playing with the emotions of EO Sky.
04:00EO Sky who was incredibly upset when the Kabuki Warriors decided to turn on her.
04:04But to be clear, they turned on her because EO Sky showed too much loyalty to somebody else.
04:11That's somebody else being Rhea Ripley.
04:13Desperately trying to talk EO Sky back into this match as the pendulum has swung.
04:22Yeah, there was months and months of Asuka being very possessive and trying to set boundaries for the relationship between EO Sky and Rhea Ripley.
04:31Well, Asuka has always been the mentor of EO Sky and primarily the reason why EO Sky has got to the very top of this industry.
04:39A lot of people would argue that turning her back on Asuka and siding with Rhea Ripley was a major mistake for the Genius of the Sky.
04:47Wade, the momentum she just created with that dropkick.
04:51Yeah, and when you are down on the outside of the ring, that is a dangerous place to be against the Geniuses of the Sky.
04:57And clearly, Asuka was only too aware of that behind the referee's back.
05:04Dropping EO Sky and Rhea Ripley coming to play equalizing that.
05:10Chasing off Asuka as she disrupted all that match momentum.
05:14Oh, off the apron!
05:17Exactly the moment to pounce for Kairi Sane.
05:20Damage done behind the ref's back and now a major upper hand for Sane.
05:26Back here in Kansas City.
05:28The night opened up with Gunther with a very, very heated statement for John Cena.
05:33We're five days away from Saturday night's main event.
05:35The historic moment when Cena will have his final match.
05:38EO Sky in action now against Kairi Sane who's on the group.
05:41Oh, she was looking for that big sliding elbow, but instead EO Sky able to get an offense.
05:48Yeah, perfect timing there from Sky who has been put through the ringer so far in this one.
05:52Asuka on the outside numerous times getting involved and hampering the attempts of the Genius of the Sky.
05:58We're now back in it with those Shota uppercuts.
06:03And a perfect flapjack too as this one has completely spun around.
06:08EO, so quick in that corner and then delivers the kick.
06:16Such great footwork once again from EO Sky.
06:20And this is now the danger zone for Kairi Sane who had victory within her grasp and it slipped away.
06:26Genius of the Sky missile dropkick and the kip up and more.
06:30And it's KC audience coming on glue.
06:38And they can sense it.
06:40And so can EO.
06:42She has turned things around.
06:44The bullet train meteor lined up and delivered.
06:48Maximum whiplash to the head of Kairi Sane.
06:52Here's the hook of the leg to put her away.
06:54That was a weak, weak kick out from Kairi Sane and Asuka on the outside knows it.
06:59Look of fear in the eyes.
07:03Concern from Asuka.
07:06Of course Rhea Ripley.
07:07Here we go Joe.
07:07Asuka looking for the over the moonsault.
07:09Oh, Kairi up on her feet Wade.
07:12Asuka was barking the danger over to Kairi Sane who had enough left in the tank to cut off that moonsault attempt.
07:19Which would surely have been good night in this one.
07:22What a rough spot for EO to be in here after the moonsault attempt.
07:25And now draped hanging from the top rope.
07:27Oh, and the double stomp is delivered.
07:32And you see EO reaching for her sternum immediately.
07:36The cover.
07:38And again, again.
07:40Sliding kick out there from EO Sky.
07:43Two can play at the aerial game in this one.
07:46What a nice aerial stomp there from Kairi Sane.
07:50And a badly, badly wounded EO Sky now.
07:55Maybe in trouble.
07:57Oh, trying to find a little bit of offense.
07:59And look at her.
08:00Able to turn things around.
08:01Cuts her down with that knee to the leg and a big spinning kick.
08:05Right to the temple of Kairi Sane.
08:07Both women in absolute agony.
08:13Leaving it all on the mat tonight.
08:15And what is Kairi Sane cooking up here?
08:17Off to her feet and then takes down EO.
08:21Just great, great reactions there from Kairi Sane.
08:24So nimble, able to land that and turn it around.
08:30Of course, a week plus ago, Kairi Sane and Asuka,
08:33they were on the losing side of women's war games against EO and Rhea.
08:37As two of the five members out on the apron.
08:40This doesn't look good at all.
08:42Oh, but able to land on her feet.
08:45And Kairi doesn't even realize ways.
08:46You should know EO Sky better than that, Kairi.
08:49That was a major error.
08:51And a bridging German suplex.
08:54And look at her body just fall to the floor.
08:59You simply cannot write EO Sky off.
09:02We should have learned that by now.
09:04We should have learned that a long time ago.
09:08Moves on Adam to the floor.
09:11And there's absolutely nothing Asuka can do to help Kairi from here.
09:16Referee's eyes locked on the action as the count climbs.
09:22Genius of the sky gathering momentum here deep into this match.
09:28Zia Ripley offering support on the other side of the ring.
09:32Zio can't pick up the pace like she normally does.
09:34Body so beat up and bruised.
09:38Big kick.
09:39Zio is looking to springboard for a moment.
09:42And right in the drop zone, Zio Tess.
09:46Exactly where EO Sky wants her opponents.
09:52And just as she does again, Asuka comes up onto the apron as the ref is distracted.
09:58And here comes Mami.
10:02Oh, we've got ourselves a brawl.
10:05Oh, what a kick.
10:08Being so heated between these two.
10:10Oh, what a kick.
10:11Zio and Asuka disposed in timekeeper.
10:16Meanwhile, Kairi Sane back to action against EO.
10:19BAM's going for that stomp once again.
10:21But EO has tasted that.
10:23And EO does not want a second experience.
10:26Nice Policanrana type flip there.
10:29Third chance and over the moonsault is three times a turn.
10:34Yes.
10:34Here is your winner, EO Sky.
10:48Well, the Kabuki Warriors threw everything they could at EO Sky.
10:53But ultimately, Rhea Ripley being right here to be the equalizer and take out Asuka.
11:00Allowed EO Sky that opportunity to finish the job.
11:04And this was really a massive, massive moment.
11:06That bridging German onto the ring apron.
11:09Followed up by this picture-perfect springboard Asahi moonsault taking down Kairi Sane.
11:16And this is where Asuka sensed danger.
11:19Tried to do something about it.
11:21Rhea Ripley had other ideas.
11:25Dropping the Empress of Tomorrow.
11:27Cleaning out the garbage for now.
11:30Allowing EO Sky to do what EO Sky does better than anybody.
11:36And stick that moonsault.
11:38Get the win.
11:39And further away to that argument that Rhea Ripley and EO Sky deserve an opportunity at the women's tag titles.
11:46They have openly stated that is the goal.
11:50Let's see if they get that opportunity.
11:53A good win for EO Sky.
