A frightening moment occurred during IYO SKY’s match against Raquel Rodriguez on Monday’s WWE Raw at Madison Square Garden when SKY took a hard landing on her neck while attempting a suicide dive at ringside. While the Netflix broadcast appeared to show Asuka softening the fall, fan footage told a different story — revealing that SKY made significant contact with the floor on her neck in what was an alarming spot.
Fortunately, SKY walked off the impact and later posted a positive update, easing concerns about any serious injury. The incident, however, prompted a strong reaction from Peter Rosenberg, who took to Twitter to voice his frustration with the spot and the broader issue of high-risk dives in modern wrestling.
“This is why I tell whoever I can at Evolve and even on the main roster — don’t bother with these dives. They are all risk, no reward. If you successfully hit a suicide dive in 2026 no one cares. But if you mess it up you could truly harm yourself. Don’t do it,” Rosenberg wrote. He added a self-aware caveat acknowledging he is not a wrestler himself but explained that watching these spots up close makes him cringe every time. The response reflects an ongoing conversation in professional wrestling about the risk-reward calculation of high-impact moves that have become so commonplace they no longer generate the reactions they once did, yet carry the same physical danger they always have.
