#1 Worst: Asuka gets pinned by Mandy Rose

Why am I okay with Daniel Bryan getting pinned but not Asuka? For one Daniel Bryan gets TV time every week and even if he's pinned, it was for a program that helps him. There's literally nobody hotter in the company right now than Kofi Kingston and a program between Bryan and Kingston will benefit both men involved.

But more importantly, it just shows us that WWE has no major plans for the SmackDown Women's Championship. Sure, we can all say that a push for Mandy Rose is imminent and that she will be Asuka's next challenger, but did we really need a roll up after a distraction from Lacey Evans?

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

The SmackDown Women's Division needs Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. Without them, the division just seems lacklustre.

For Asuka's sake, I hope that the WWE Creative team has concrete plans in place and that she has a credible WrestleMania 35 opponent.
