"It will never happen" - Fans believe WWE won't allow popular star to become the next champion

Fans don
WWE is the biggest wrestling promotion in the world.

WWE has changed the design and names of several top championships in the company. That could lead to some new faces winning the championships to help build the titles’ legacies. However, many fans believe that a popular star may not win the title soon.

Asuka won the RAW Women’s Championship from Bianca Belair at Night of Champions 2023. On the latest episode of SmackDown, Adam Pearce presented her new WWE Women’s Championship in exchange for the RAW Women’s Title.

Right after she was awarded the new title, Charlotte Flair made her return to jump the line again and challenged The Empress of Tomorrow for the title. Asuka accepted the challenge, and it looks like The Queen could win the title days before Money in the Bank.

Sports Illustrated recently reported that IYO SKY could be the one to dethrone Asuka and become the new WWE Women’s Champion.

However, many fans are not convinced that SKY will get to defeat The Empress anytime soon.

Most believe that Charlotte Flair will get another short run with the title before anyone else can get their hands on it.

Check out the reactions below:

IYO SKY is a former NXT Women’s Champion who has proven her worth in the ring on many occasions. Fans have been waiting to see her have a full-fledged rivalry with Asuka in the ring.

WWE could book them for a long rivalry that could see them have an epic showdown at SummerSlam 2023 with the title on the line. It would be a great way to get both the international superstars over.


WWE may be planning to turn IYO SKY babyface soon

The Genius of the Sky has been working as part of Damage CTRL since pairing up with Bayley and Dakota Kai on the main roster. The trio has proven to be great heels in the ring.

Kai’s unfortunate injury has been a setback to the faction that was steaming ahead on RAW before moving to SmackDown. After unsuccessfully challenging Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s Championship, it looks like SKY is ready to turn face.

Her first rivalry could come against Bayley, who may have cost her the title against Belair. Tensions seem to be rising between the two teammates, and they could break up as early as Money in the Bank.

That could lead to a big rivalry between The Role Model and IYO SKY, allowing the winner to get in the WWE Women’s Championship picture ahead of SummerSlam.
