WWE Raw Women’s Champion Asuka wasn’t seen in WWE TV since she had broken tooth after the stuff kick by Shayna Baszler during the tag team match. Now, we got the update about the status of Asuka.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer radio reported that ‘The Empress of Tomorrow’ Asuka suffered concussion after that kick by Baszler on Monday Night Raw and that’s the reason she was taken off to WWE TV.
‘The Queen’ Charlotte Flair also mentioned the Shayna Baszler’s Kick to Asuka on last week’s Raw and said that Asuka is unable to compete now. But WWE didn’t officially released any statement regarding Auska’s injury. It was also rumored that Charlotte Flair will challenge Asuka for Raw Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 37 and last week she also expressed her desire to face Asuka.
There no clear information about when Asuka will return to WWE TV. It was expected that she would be able to return before WrestleMania 37 event, so, she maybe kept out off WWE Fastlane card. After her return, WWE might build up for her WrestleMania match.
Other women superstars include Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke also expressed that they also want Raw Women’s Title shot, and this week’s we also saw the impassioned promo of Peyton Royce on Raw Talk.
