WWE Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley has reacted to her best friend IYO SKY’s monumental victory at Night of Champions 2026.

As previously noted, IYO SKY defeated Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan to win the 2026 Queen of the Ring tournament. SKY planted Liv with a Spanish Fly and followed it up with the Over the Moonsault to become the new “Queen” of the women’s division. Notably, Morgan was “cursed” by Danhausen ahead of the match.

On X, IYO’s ally and current WWE Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley reacted to her victory.

Here’s what Rhea wrote:

“That’s my Queen!!!!🥹❤️👑✨”

Check out her post below:

Thanks to her victory, IYO SKY is now headed to SummerSlam, where she will challenge for a world title. However, the Japanese star revealed in her post-match promo that she won’t be going after Rhea’s title. Instead, we’ll see IYO SKY vs. Liv Morgan for the Women’s World Championship at The Biggest Party of the Summer this August.

Meanwhile, Rhea is currently out of action due to a knee injury she suffered during the recent European tour.
