The former NXT Women's Champion and first ever winner of the inaugural 2018 Women's Royal Rumble is currently lost in the mid-card shuffle. Hopefully WWE finds a way to recapture her unbeatable aura because there are potentially hard-hitting feuds she can have with Becky Lynch or Ronda Rousey.

Already well established in her native Japan, Asuka made her American wrestling debut in 2011 wrestling as Kana at Shimmer Volume 41 defeating Mia Yim. She made several appearances for the promotion between 2011-14, main eventing a couple of shows and challenging for the Championship.

Previously part of the music project Face and the No Credits. It was really terrible. Hopefully less terrible is my writings about music, wrestling and other subjects. Respect the luchador mask and $5 poncho!
