10 New Directions After WWE Money In The Bank 2018
9. Asuka Crushing James Ellsworth
There's no way around it: Asuka has to kick James Ellsworth's teeth down his throat for disrespecting her at Money In The Bank and costing her the chance to become SmackDown Women's Champion.
One of Ellsworth's last major moments in WWE before being canned late last year was an intergender loss to Becky Lynch on SmackDown. In order for Asuka to regain some face from the pay-per-view and put the chinless wonder in his place, she simply must go postal on his smug face as a horrified Carmella looks on.
That's what Jimmy is there for, and he's pretty damn good at taking a kicking.
Asuka beating Ellsworth would prolong the feud with Carmella too, and that must be in WWE's mind heading into SummerSlam. There's one more stop on the calendar before that event (Extreme Rules), and it makes sense that SmackDown GM Paige will give Asuka another shot due to Ellsworth's shock return before shifting focus to a new feud.
