As of this writing, WWE are still promoting Asuka Vs Lacey Evans despite the latter revealing a real life pregnancy on the go-home edition of Monday Night Raw.

It's not the only match that might need a rethink before Sunday, but most would argue that this booking needed one anyway. Evans' feud with Charlotte Flair felt destined to overlap with this, most likely resulting in a screwy finish that kept the belt on 'The Empress Of Tomorrow' that little bit longer.

The simplest pivot from this point would be for Evans to introduce a ringer for the night and for the company to go ahead with the planned hijinks anyway. The positive from that is that Peyton Royce may step in for a rare pay-per-view singles showcase, though all the foolishness likely to follow with Flair, Evans et al might ruin her chances of making a run last.

The Champion retains in whatever mess the company concocts, but she feels like the least important part of her own title match - something has to change.

Winner - Asuka
