IYO SKY is your 2023 Miss Money in the Bank.
This year’s WWE Money in the Bank premium live event featured a six-woman ladder match with the likes of Bayley, IYO SKY, Zelina Vega, Trish Stratus, Zoey Stark, and Becky Lynch.
SKY lived up to her “Genius of the Sky” moniker as she hit a moonsault off of a ladder onto the field sans Stratus. The Hall of Famer scaled the ladder after the spot, but Lynch stopped her and shoved her to the mat.
Stratus and Stark continued targeting Lynch and attempted to handcuff her to the ropes at one point before Lynch hit Stratus with a Manhandle Slam onto a ladder at ringside. Stark was then on the receiving end of Vega’s Code Red onto a ladder in the ring.
When SKY appeared to have the bout won, Bayley pushed her ladder over. Lynch chased up the ladder and fish-hooked Bayley with the cuff. But unfortunately for them, SKY handcuffed Bayley to Lynch before climbing over her teammate to grab the briefcase.
