Flair won the match via submission, ending Asuka's legendary streak that had lasted more than 6 years. Soon after, she was sent to SmackDown in the Superstar Shakeup. Asuka went on to lose to Carmella of all people and was nothing but an afterthought throughout the year.

She won the SmackDown Women's Title at TLC, but lost it again to Charlotte, mere days before WrestleMania 35. WWE's treatment of Asuka sent the WWE Universe in a frenzy, but it was all for naught as Asuka ended up being one of the participants in the 2nd annual WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal.

Asuka has fallen hard, and fans are clamoring for her to leave the promotion and go somewhere she would be handled the way she deserves to be.
