IYO SKY would rather be a babyface than a heel, something she explained in a recent interview. SKY spoke with ComicBook Nation for a recent interview and spoke about her experiences on both sides of the wrestler alignment chart; you can see highlights below (per Fightful):

On what she’s learned from her time on NXT and the main roster: “When I was in NXT, most of the time I was as a heel. But now I am a babyface and I always smiling. I’m pointing my face and screaming and I’m so much better enjoying this way to wrestling so yeah.”

On preferring to be a babyface: “Yeah because I could smiling in the ring because as a heel I have to always keep like a grumpy face or you know scary face during the match so now I’m smiling as a natural.”
