The Kabuki Warriors will put their WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships on the line against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY on the January 5 episode of Raw, marking the one-year anniversary of the show’s Netflix debut.

The title match continues the intense feud between the two teams following Asuka and Kairi Sane’s betrayal of their former ally IYO SKY. The rivalry escalated on Monday’s Raw when Asuka ambushed Ripley through the crowd, blinding her with green mist. Sane then attacked SKY before attempting to deliver her Insane Elbow to Ripley. In a pivotal moment, SKY covered Ripley and took the devastating move herself, protecting her tag team partner.

This will be a rematch from Crown Jewel in October, where Ripley and SKY defeated the Kabuki Warriors in Ripley’s home country of Australia.
