4-time champion to attack IYO SKY and replace her at Money in the Bank? Exploring potential swerve in Toronto
For the second year in a row, IYO SKY is one of the most believable participants to grab the Women's Money in the Bank briefcase. With five strong contenders over RAW and SmackDown, The Genius of the SKY might create history with consecutive MITB wins. However, a former champion might look to ruin her crowning moment at the upcoming spectacle.
The name in question is IYO's Damage CTRL stablemate Dakota Kai. The former Women's Tag Team Champion could turn on SKY to secure her spot in the Ladder Match in Toronto. The reasons for this attack can be traced back to their backstage segments on RAW when they were not on the same page. The constant losses of Kai and Kairi Sane have frustrated the former WWE Women's Champion, resulting in tensions between Damage CTRL.
IYO SKY has been demanding an undisclosed 'change' in the stable for their betterment, whose path might go through King Kota. The latter might be getting deja vu of the times when SKY was using the same tactics with Bayley. Therefore, Dakota Kai could draw the first blood and turn on Damage CTRL's leader seemingly at the upcoming PLE.
Dakota, who has failed to earn her spot in the ladder match, could pull off a huge shocker. She could launch a backstage attack on IYO SKY and injure the latter prior to her match at Money in the Bank. Following the potential betrayal, she could take SKY's spot at the Women's Ladder Match in what could be a huge turn of events.
However, this is just speculation and the possibility of Dakota Kai turning on The Genius of the SKY at Money in the Bank is minimal. Fans will have to tune in to find out what goes down at Money in the Bank.
Possibility of IYO SKY winning her second consecutive MITB match
The 15th edition of Money in the Bank will emanate from the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto this Saturday. The thrilling match card has the traditional ladder matches for men and women from both rosters, raising the unpredictability of the PLE. Last year, it was IYO SKY who took the win and she looks forward to repeating it.
From the RAW side, Lyra Valkyria and Zoey Stark will also be looking to unhook the briefcase. The NXT call-up, Valkyria, will be promising in her first indirect championship opportunity. However, this high-class action is not new for IYO and even Zoey, who participated in last year's MITB in London as well. However, things look difficult for the Damage CTRL member this time in Toronto.
On the SmackDown side, Tiffany Stratton is the favorite to win this year's Money in the Bank. Next up is Chelsea Green, who has the home-country advantage and might overjoy the Canadian crowd rooting for her. Naomi has the fewest chances, as she does not need a briefcase at this point in her career.
With all these deserving candidates for the Money in the Bank briefcase, a consecutive win for IYO SKY does not feel palpable. There are even chances of her not making it to the match due to Dakota Kai's backstage attack to replace her. This puts The Genius of the SKY's chances of making history at MITB in jeopardy. However, the fans are well aware of the fact that when it comes to WWE, "Never say never."
