10 big things Asuka has accomplished in WWE

#4 First-ever women's TLC winner

Asuka's title win came in a first

As much as I hate the words "historic" or "first ever" in a WWE context, because it usually comes in the form of pandering, it nevertheless needs to be pointed out that Asuka won the inaugural women's TLC match. In a big stipulation such as that, and in the main event to boot, such a victory is a sign of confidence. It's one most people wouldn't be able to see coming during Asuka's horrible summer.

Winning such a dramatic match is an accomplishment that Asuka will be able to boast of when she looks back on her career. She can also take comfort that it set an incredibly high bar for the women in the company, helping her to achieve the objective she set when she first came into the WWE in 2015, when a "women's revolution" looked promising, but was far from assured.
