Iyo Sky has been riding a wave of momentum, and her latest interview added even more buzz to her growing spotlight.
Fresh off her championship run with Rhea Ripley, she opened up about dream matches and unexpected pairings that she hopes to explore. Caught everyone off guard was her excitement about teaming with Rey Mysterio, a legend she openly admires.
She shared the idea with a kind of genuine enthusiasm that instantly pulled fans in. When asked about future possibilities, she didn’t drift toward standard matchups or familiar rivalries.
She went straight to Mysterio, saying she would love the chance to stand beside him in a mixed tag setting, believing their styles could create something memorable.
A Dream Pairing She Wants Both In-Game and In the Ring
Sky continued by explaining that this isn’t a passing thought. She has imagined the pairing in multiple ways, even mentioning how fun it would be to bring it to life in WWE 2K26.
Still, she made it clear that the real goal is inside the ring, with the crowd reacting to every move and the stakes carrying real weight.
She has never hidden her admiration for Mysterio. Her social posts over the years show how highly she thinks of him, both as a performer and as someone who helped shape her understanding of wrestling psychology and rhythm.
The idea of sharing a corner with one of her inspirations clearly fuels her excitement.
Mysterio remains one of WWE’s most respected figures, someone many of today’s stars grew up watching.
Hearing Sky speak about him with such sincerity gives the potential pairing a refreshing authenticity. It isn’t a marketing pitch. It feels like a genuine wish from a performer who still carries a fan’s heart beneath the championship gold.
Sky also took a moment to reflect on her favorite matches from her career so far, crediting Ripley for helping push her into a more confident and expressive version of herself.
She sounded energized, focused, and hungry for the kind of moments that define eras rather than single matches.
