The September 22 episode of WWE Monday Night Raw concluded with a dramatic and chaotic sequence involving Asuka, Kairi Sane, Rhea Ripley, and IYO SKY. The main event featured a singles match between Asuka and Rhea Ripley.
During the match, Asuka, while down, instructed Kairi to strike Ripley. Kairi hesitated but eventually attempted a backhand, which Ripley blocked. Asuka then charged at Ripley, who dodged, causing Asuka to collide with Kairi. Ripley capitalized on the moment and rolled up Asuka for the win.
Immediately after the loss, Asuka retaliated by spraying her green mist into Ripley’s face. She then ordered Kairi to attack Ripley. Kairi reluctantly began punching Ripley under Asuka’s direction. This prompted IYO SKY to rush to the ring to stop Asuka’s attack. Asuka embraced her briefly before striking her with a backfist.
Asuka continued to command Kairi, instructing her to attack IYO. Kairi complied, punching IYO and holding her in place while Asuka delivered a kick. The segment reached its peak when Asuka ordered Kairi to perform her finishing move, the Insane Elbow, on IYO SKY. Kairi executed the move but appeared visibly disturbed by the events as the show went off the air.
