WWE Hall Of Famer Road Dogg thinks Asuka is the "Roman Reigns of women's wrestling" in 2023.

The former D-Generation X man would also like to see Triple H/Vince McMahon present Asuka similarly to how Reigns is used on SmackDown, because he reckons she's "probably the best female wrestler in the world". That's high praise indeed, and Roadie didn't stop there.

He went on to tell listeners tuning into his podcast that Asuka's attitude behind the scenes is part of what makes her so great. She's "magnanimous" when working with lesser talents, "incredible" in-ring, and just one of the best all-rounders the biz has.

Road Dogg doesn't think a language barrier should be held against Asuka either - he thinks the way she delivers promos should be considered a strength. It's unique, and that's surely something WWE can get behind. If not, then Roadie reckons subtitling her speeches and letting Asuka speak freely (without being too over-the-top) would go down well with most fans in the modern era.

The legend basically gushed with praise for Asuka. He views her in the same light as stars like Roman.
