10 Best Wrestlers Of 2025

6. Iyo Sky

After Night One's card flattered to deceive, WrestleMania 41 was desperately in need of at least one contest on Night Two that, bell-to-bell, belonged on the 'Grandest Stage' and Iyo Sky was the glue of an electrifying triple threat that also featured Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley.

Stealing the show (and WWE's match-of-the-year honours) with a battle exponentially better than the programme that built it, the contest initially featured defending Champion Sky being bullied out of her own title match by megastar challengers Belair and Ripley. As the action wore on though, it became a can-you-top-this display of three-way sequences and opportunistic assaults borne out of desperation from the situation. Beautifully executed without sacrificing violence, it was symbolic of a division thriving entirely on the quality of its workers, with Iyo at the top of the pile.

Star-making on a new level for Sky, she enhanced her case further as the year rolled on. A singles bout with Ripley at Evolution in was yet another that went straight into people's end-of-year lists, a trilogy with Stephanie Vacquer was strong despite only one match having a finish, and an Autumn series alongside 'The Nightmare' against Asuka and Kairi Sane yielded a host of big-time matches and segments.

Beloved, over and consistent, she's a booker's dream and remains breathing the rarified air of a massive globally-recognised star that might still have glass ceilings to smash.
