This is the prediction piece p*ss break, much as it will be during Sunday's supershow. The only actual reason for this match to exist is to remind people that, yes, there is still a SmackDown Women's Champion, and yes, it's still in Asuka's possession.

It's even more straightforward than the brand's de facto men's equivalent earlier in the evening, but infinitely less important. As with Bryan's beef against Owens, there could be some forward planning included in Asuka's defence in a bid to make the title at least partially relevant at WrestleMania whilst it wallows in the shadow of the Becky-Rondy-Charlotte hate triangle.

And it could involve Lacey Evans. Good heavens.

Prediction: Even Mandy Rose is ready for Asuka to win comfortably.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
