The September 22nd episode of WWE Monday Night Raw closed with plenty of drama. Rhea Ripley won the main event by defeating Asuka, but the celebration was short-lived. Minutes later, Asuka and Kairi Sane attacked both Ripley and IYO SKY with a brutal assault, leaving them collapsed as the show ended.
On her KanaChanTV YouTube channel, Asuka released a video addressing Rhea Ripley’s behavior. She said Ripley entered their recent match with unusual anger and aggression, which caught her off guard. Asuka pointed out that losing control of emotions is one of Ripley’s most significant flaws, adding that a real champion knows how to stay composed in challenging situations.
She didn’t stop there. Asuka mocked Ripley directly, saying she had warned others to stay away from “snakes like Rhea” but that they were too blind to see who was real and who was fake. She called Ripley a puppet who would never break free and accused her of betraying trust while pretending to be the victim.
Asuka also criticized Rhea Ripley’s treatment of IYO SKY. She rejected Ripley’s claim that IYO was unreliable and instead turned the accusation back on her. According to Asuka, Ripley is the one who cannot be trusted, as she exploits others to serve her own interests, and pointed to her past alliances as proof.
Asuka went further, bringing up Ripley’s recent loss to Stephanie Vaquer, claiming it happened because Ripley refused the support of her and Kairi Sane. She bluntly called Ripley a loser for letting arrogance and poor choices cost her opportunities.
By continuing to question Ripley’s character and provoking her through both words and actions, Asuka made it clear their feud is far from over. WWE fans can expect more heated clashes ahead, as this rivalry is only beginning to intensify.
Her fiery message, combined with the post-match attack, adds more fuel to Asuka’s fight against Rhea Ripley. With trust issues, mind games, and unfinished business in play, their rivalry promises even more intense battles ahead.
