Rhiyo

WWE Women's Tag Team Champions (2025–2026)

Afterwards, Ripley and Sky maintained a friendly relationship, much to the dismay of Sky's former Damage CTRL stablemates The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane), but more specifically Asuka, who confronted Sky multiple times, claiming that Sky should end her friendship with Ripley. At Wrestlepalooza, Sky was scheduled to face Stephanie Vaquer for the vacant title, where Asuka stated that she and Sane would help her win, but Sky declined their help; Sky subsequently lost the match.^[7] Two nights later on Raw, Asuka confronted Vaquer, stating that Sky should have won the title instead. Ripley then interrupted her, stating that she was tired of Asuka's behavior. This led to a match between Ripley and Asuka being scheduled for later that night, but before that, Sky asked Ripley to call off the match, which Ripley declined, and stated that Sky should be careful with Asuka, which infuriated Sky. Later, Ripley defeated Asuka. Following the match, Asuka spat mist on Ripley before Sky made the save. However, Asuka performed a spinning backfist on Sky, betraying her. After that, Asuka and a conflicted Sane attacked Sky and Ripley.^[8] On the following episode, Ripley called out The Kabuki Warriors, with Sky appearing instead. Sky then stated that Ripley was right about Asuka and Sane, but stated they were family and she still loved them. The Kabuki Warriors then appeared on the titantron, and Asuka said that she would forgive Sky if she apologized to her. Sky then left, only for the Kabuki Warriors to attack Ripley, prompting Sky to intervene. Asuka then spat mist on Sky before continuing the attack on Ripley. Later that night, Sane tried to convince Sky to apologize to Asuka, which Sky refused and told Sane to leave her alone. Sky subsequently revealed to Ripley that, after speaking with Raw General Manager Adam Pearce, she and Ripley, in the latter's home country of Australia, would face The Kabuki Warriors in a tag team match at Crown Jewel, where Ripley and Sky emerged victorious.^[9]

On Raw's Netflix Anniversary Show on January 5, 2026, Rhiyo defeated The Kabuki Warriors to win the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship for the first time together. After this, Ripley and Sky's team became a tag team dubbed "Rhiyo" (a portmanteau of their first names).^[10] At Saturday Night's Main Event XLIII, Ripley and Sky retained the titles against The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez). On the February 27 episode of SmackDown, they lost the titles to The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax and Lash Legend).^[11]
