Big E Believes The Kabuki Warriors vs Rhea Ripley And IYO SKY Is The Most Compelling Story In WWE Right Now

Big E believes the storyline involving The Kabuki Warriors along with Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY is the most compelling in WWE.

The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) have been feuding with Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY over the past few weeks, with Asuka pulling the trigger on misting IYO on this week’s edition of WWE Monday Night RAW on September 29th. For Big E, he feels like the storyline is the pick of the litter in WWE currently.

While speaking to the RAW Recap this week, Big E spoke about the storyline, noting that it is the most compelling story in WWE right now.

“Well, the mist is unsettling. I was seeing Rhea. It looked like a 10-gallon bucket of paint got dumped on her last week. The amount of mist, and it kept spreading. I swear it kept spreading throughout the night. It got worse and worse. Clearly, poor IYO was infected with this venom. Look, this is for me, this is the most compelling story we have in WWE right now. This is the one that I’m riveted to, this is the one that I’m paying attention to. We’re talking about a lot of history with these women. I think Asuka doesn’t get enough credit for opening the door to all these incredible performers from Japan showing that, hey, there could be a home here for you in WWE. I’m not sure we get IYO SKY without Asuka. I’m not sure that we get Kairi without Asuka. Look, to see how long we’ve had Asuka under the WWE umbrella to know she had an amazing career as kind of before she got to WWE. Now to see she still got it to see her in a singles match last week. She is still an incredible performer. She hasn’t lost a step. It seems I’m really, really excited for this tag team match. Also, can I say the centipede makeup was was one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Asuka’s on another level right now, and it seems like in many ways, I feel like she’s been, the last couple of years, I know she’s dealt with some injuries as well. She’s almost been on the back burner, and I think we forget how terrifying one this woman is, but how incredible she is. I have to say, I’m really, really looking forward to this match in Perth at Crown Jewel. There’s so much meat here. Obviously Rhea headed back to her home country. She’s gonna get just an incredible reception as well. But seeing all four of these women really step up in so many different ways. I feel like I have to stifle a laugh every time I see Kairi on screen as well. Whether she’s doing the fisticuffs, she is a gem as well in the background. There’s so many elements of this story and just the very real elements I think that are in play for IYO because there’s really obviously a real kinship with Asuka, with Kairi, what they’ve been through as a family. You see her just kind of being torn apart here, so I’m really intrigued to see how this match will play out in Perth.”
