As Kurt trotted down to the ring for his match with AJ Styles (one that'd be spoiled by some last-ditch attempts to make AJ vs. Randy Orton mean something at 'Mania), he observed a pained Asuka trying to recover at ringside. Rather than helping his fellow babyface, Kurt simply jogged past as though she wasn't there.

Maybe she wasn't meant to be?
