Michin started the year on a high as she received the biggest match of her WWE career. She faced IYO SKY on the Jan. 5 episode of SmackDown for the WWE Women’s Championship. She came up short, but in a WWE Digital Exclusive she shows she has the fight to make 2024 her year.
Michin states that this was the biggest match of her WWE career and she lost it. But did she? She proved that she has what it takes and the loss against SKY just fueled her to show more. She vows 2024 will be the year of Michin.
The match itself resulted with SKY finally hitting the Over the Moonsault on the second try and getting the pin.
Bianca Belair has declared for the Royal Rumble match.
In a backstage segment, all of Damage CTRL (who were not at ringside for the match) congratulated SKY for her win. Bayley says her vision is still clear for all of Damage CTRL to win gold. She wants The Kabuki Warriors to take the tag titles and she intends to win the Rumble herself and take the gold off of Rhea Ripley.
Belair entered the conversation to declare herself for the Rumble match. She says she will be the first woman to win it twice. SKY says as the leader, it is up to Bayley to take care of Belair. Bayley vs. Belair is set for next week.
Names so far in the Rumble – Bayley, Nia Jax, Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair
In another Digital Exclusive, B-Fab checks in on Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits. Lashley and company were jumped and attacked by the new group of Karrion Kross and a returning AOP. Feeling down about it, B-Fab tries to lift their spirits. She says it was a cheap shot and that the three of them are multi-champions. So they will get the next shot.
