Sol Ruca isn’t wasting any time making her main roster pitch. Fresh off her “WWE Raw” debut against Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan, the former Women’s North American Champion was asked to build a fantasy “WWE 2K26” matchup — and her answer pulled in three names across two brands.
Speaking on the official “Raw Recap” post-show, Ruca stuck with IYO SKY as her top pick, a dream opponent she’s been naming in interviews dating back to last summer. From there, though, she detoured into a scenario tailor-made for the game’s create-a-match mode.
“So, my dream match is IYO SKY,” Ruca said. “But for this scenario, if it can be anyone, it’d probably be Randy Orton. The RKO, the Sol Snatcher, we’re gonna see whose is better. Maybe throw Je’Von in there too. We can all just go crazy.”
The Orton angle carries some backstage weight. Je’Von Evans, who Ruca name-dropped at the end, already shared a ring with “The Viper” back in October 2024 on “WWE NXT” in St. Louis, eating an RKO in the finish. Ruca has yet to cross paths with Orton in any format.
Her “Raw” status itself remains muddy. Michael Cole announced Ruca as a member of the brand on commentary, but unlike Ethan Page and Joe Hendry, no formal call-up graphic ever aired. Ruca said she’d only flown to Las Vegas for WWE World and media duties, and has been treating everything one step at a time.
The next step is tonight. Ruca meets Zaria in a Last Woman Standing Match on week two of “NXT Revenge,” after Zaria cost her the Morgan bout on Monday.
