The WWE Universe is abuzz with excitement as the company prepares to present its inaugural Backlash France Premium Live Event (PLE) in Lyon, France. However, a notable absentee has left fans scratching their heads – IYO SKY, a key member of the popular WWE stable, Damage CTRL.
Asuka and Kairi Sane, both part of Damage CTRL, have arrived at the LDLC Arena in Lyon ahead of the event, accompanied by Dakota Kai.
The trio was captured on camera walking into the venue, looking fierce and focused as they prepare to defend their Women’s Tag Team Championship titles against Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair.
The omission of SKY from the group’s arrival photo has sparked speculation about her whereabouts.
Her absence is all the more puzzling given that she was seen celebrating Damage CTRL’s draft trade to RAW on social media just last week. Fans are left wondering if there’s an injury, personal issue, or creative decision behind SKY’s non-appearance.
The Genius of the Sky hasn’t been seen in a televised WWE match since losing the Women’s Championship to Bayley at WrestleMania XL. She did make appearances at two non-televised live events in late April, only to suffer losses against the same opponent on both nights.
As Backlash France approaches, fans are eager to see what’s behind SKY’s absence from Damage CTRL. Will she make a surprise appearance during the event, or is this merely a temporary hiatus for the talented wrestler? The WWE Universe will have to wait and see as the drama unfolds in Lyon.
In the meantime, Asuka and Sane will have to carry the load for their team without SKY’s contributions. Can they successfully defend their tag team titles against Cargill and Belair, or will their opponents capitalize on the absence of a key member?
The stage is set for an exciting showdown at Backlash France, with SKY’s status as a tantalizing subplot.
