WWE Evolve commentator and radio DJ Peter Rosenberg has urged wrestlers to stop performing suicide dives after IYO SKY's nasty landing on "WWE Raw."

IYO SKY is one of the most loved wrestlers on the WWE roster, and a big part of that is due to her incredible energy and agility in the ring. But that enthusiasm nearly led to an injury when a suicide dive went awry and left her landing on her face. Thankfully, she wasn't injured, but Rosenberg warned wrestlers from using it in the future.

"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," said Rosenberg.

His comment drew some criticism from fans, and the radio host and commentator hit back at the critics, stating that the move is too risky for the potential benefits it may offer the wrestler.

"People seem upset I posted this. It came only from a place of sincere care. Iyo is amazing and one of the best on earth and it still presents a huge risk. I just think the risks outweigh the reward. I say this as a huge fan and someone who is privileged enough to be up close and personal with this business. I am not a wrestler and never put my body on the line. My respect for those who do it is undying. That said — I have opinions for a living. And my opinion is this move is not dope enough to be worth it anymore," he added.

The dive happened during her match with Raquel Rodriguez, when she attempted the move on Asuka, who had interfered in the match. The move didn't land as it should have, resulting in her falling on her face. The miscue also allowed Rodriguez to take advantage and secure a win over SKY.
