Asuka is one of the most popular members of the women’s roster in WWE, and she also sells a ton of merchandise. That being said, she still hasn’t wrestled since last July. After being sidelined with an injury, it seems the former Money in the Bank winner is finally on her way back.
According to a report from Fightful Select, WWE has finally landed on a decision about Asuka’s return to television. It is reported that her return is “imminent.” We’ll just have to see when she does come back, but fans should get ready.
There are imminent plans for Asuka to return to WWE Raw, as of this weekend. We’ve learned that as of this weekend, the plan was for her to enter at least a short-term program with Becky Lynch as soon as Monday’s Raw, though as is always the case, nothing for WWE TV (or pro wrestling TV) until it actually happens.
It seems that Lynch vs Asuka is going to happen. There were a lot of pitches for Asuka’s return to television and they couldn’t land on a creative decision. Now she is getting back on track to make that long-awaited return.
You never know what can happen in WWE when it comes to plans changing, but fans should expect to see Asuka again very soon.
