This week’s edition of Monday Night RAW featured a ‘Champions Showcase’ match between the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The Kabuki Warriors

and the team of RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch and SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair. Kairi Sane pinned the RAW Women’s Champion with a roll-up, courtesy of Asuka spitting green mist into Lynch’s face.

Becky Lynch and Asuka in a Twitter battle

As expected, Lynch was furious with the outcome of the match and took to Twitter to challenge Asuka. ‘The Empress of Tomorrow’ didn’t waste any time getting back to her.

??? Oh, it looks so delicious!
I really want to try it! https://t.co/Eby26cGdnl

The Man vs The Empress

Asuka enjoyed an unbeaten streak in NXT and it only continued even after she joined the main roster. During that time, she squared off against Becky Lynch and emerged victorious. Fightful pointed out that Asuka is yet to lose a match where ‘The Man’ is involved.

Wow
Raw: Kabuki Warriors over Becky & Charlotte
Rumble: Asuka beats Becky
TLC: Asuka beats Becky & Charlotte
Rumble 18: Asuka wins
Survivor Series 17: Asuka’s team beats Becky’s

At Survivor Series 2017, Asuka emerged as the sole survivor by defeating Lynch’s team. Asuka also won the first ever all female Royal Rumble, despite Lynch’s involvement.

‘The Man’ then lost her SmackDown Women’s Championship to Asuka in a Triple Threat TLC Match last year. ‘The Empress’ successfully retained the title against Lynch by forcing her to tap out at this year’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Fast forward to this week, The Kabuki Warriors stood tall over the reigning RAW Women’s Champion.

Undoubtedly, Becky Lynch is eager to settle the score with Asuka, which is why she challenged ‘The Empress of Tomorrow’ to a war.

I hope this is a declaration of war. @WWEAsuka pic.twitter.com/J6Hgaa0JcL

The Kabuki Warriors

Asuka and Kairi Sane began teaming up earlier this year. They have been working toward the goal of becoming WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship for quite some time. The duo defeated Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross and Hell in a Cell to become the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.

Back-to-back, Asuka helped her team to win using the green mist, and it will be interesting to see how her character evolves following these recent victories
