What’s going on with Asuka following her recent actions on WWE RAW?
During last night’s match between IYO SKY and Roxanne Perez, a miscommunication took place between the former members of Damage CTRL, leading to SKY losing the match. Asuka and Kairi Sane apologized to SKY backstage following her match, but something seemed off. And there’s a good reason for that…
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, there is a heel turn coming for The Empress of Tomorrow. The turn was supposed to be more of a slow burn over the next several weeks. However, Naomi not being medically cleared to compete pushed things forward. Resulting in what we saw last night. This would seemingly explain why SKY was taken out of the title picture with her loss to Perez last night.
As of this writing, it’s uncertain when the full-fledged heel turn will be executed, but it’s coming sooner rather than later.
Stay tuned to WrestleZone for more information as it becomes available.
