On the second night of WrestleMania 41, Iyo Sky won the Women's World Championship by defeating Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair in a thrilling opening match. There, all three wrestlers gave it their all, but while Bianca was pinning Rhea after a KOD, Iyo ultimately delivered both women an Over the Moonsault. Iyo Sky was initially scheduled to face Bianca Belair in this bout because Belair had won the 2025 Elimination Chamber.

Rhea Ripley, however, forced her way into the championship picture by interfering in the matter and attacking them both during a contract signing.  The ring entrances by Alicia Taylor gave the event a fierce, aggressive vibe as it kicked off the second night of the show of shows. Given that each woman sought to gain an advantage in their WrestleMania bout, the match would always be a struggle.

Additionally, Bianca Belair struggled to extend her perfect Mania run over four games. When the fight broke out on the top rope, Ripley threw Sky shoulder-first into the post, almost knocking her out. Rhea retaliated as Belair tried to KOD Ripley again. But just before the three-count, Sky flew in with a perfectly timed Over the Moonsault, smashing down on Belair and taking the pin. Belair would not be stopped and hit another KOD, this time on Ripley.
