WWE Survivor Series 2020: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True

3. Asuka Does Go Heel For The Night

WWE don't seem to know what's best for Asuka. She's bouncing around as Raw Women's Champion without any sense of direction - for evidence, just look at her latest role on Raw. Asuka teamed with Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose for no reason whatsoever.

Thrilling.

Sasha Banks is faring better over on SmackDown, but only because the company actually had a story arc for her to follow with and then against Bayley. In the interim, she's spinning wheels until Carmella gets her shot. That renders this 'Champ vs. Champ' bout utterly pointless. It's also a repeat; WWE booked this four months ago at Extreme Rules.

Complete apathy might push WWE into making Asuka heel for the night. Unlike the tag match, this one doesn't need any sudden alignment changes. Still, it wouldn't be shocking if the Raw Champion went Kabuki Warrior-style heel on Sasha for this one show.
