WWE TLC 2019: 10 Things That Must Happen
4. Asuka Puts Becky Lynch Down
There's a spin-off story WWE can tell during 'Mania season's first month too.
Asuka would be a fine interim challenger for Becky Lynch at January's Royal Rumble for a few reasons. Firstly, it'd be a hell of a match. Secondly, Asuka can point to her submission victory over 'The Man' at last year's Rumble event. That moment is there to be referenced, and it'd be an easy sell for the rematch.
In order to get there, Asuka and Becky must be involved in TLC's finish. Something simple like the heel blasting Lynch with her nefarious green mist (a painful cloud that sends Bex tumbling off the ladder through a table, maybe) would work. Or, failing the wood, Becky could just crumble to the canvas as Asuka grabs one of her belts.
Post-match, it'd be cool to see Asuka break out some mist again and tun the red Raw Women's Title green before smiling at her fallen enemy. There are way worse plans than having Asuka take some time out from tag work to challenge Becky one-on-one.
