When the dust cleared, it was Asuka who stood tall, after punishing both Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch.

But with the interference of Ronda Rousey, as well as how eager Asuka was to capitalize on said interference, many have speculated about a heel turn for the Japanese sensation.

Fans drowned out a popular wrestler with 'She's a racist' chants recently

Whilst she has never been a heel in WWE, fans of hers will know about her villainous time in Japan, where she became a truly hated star.

In addition, SmackDown Live is really missing a top singles heel from their women's roster, as Becky's turn at Summerslam has made her more loved than ever, Flair is still popular with the crowd, and Carmella is riding as a face with R-Truth.

A heel Asuka could certainly change things on the blue brand if the company is willing to pull the trigger.
