5 prospective challengers for Becky Lynch

4- Asuka

Asuka is the longest reigning NXT Women's champion!
Asuka is the longest reigning NXT Women's champion!

The Empress of tomorrow has been a thing of yesterday ever since her undefeated streak came to a culmination at WrestleMania by the virtue of Charlotte Flair.

Undoubtedly, the best in-ring performer among the women of WWE (Perhaps with the exception of the newly signed Io Shirai) she has all the charisma and the skills to have a long title reign akin to that of her NXT run.

She had been in the dark corners of the blue brand with odd pairings and humourless comedy skits, but a recent revival (Seemingly out of nowhere) of her by thrusting her right into the blood feud between Charlotte and Becky Lynch has been a welcome change.

When Becky was choosing her replacement to fight against Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series, Asuka got the loudest reaction from the crowd, even more so than the eventual choice of Charlotte.

While renewing the feud between The Queen and the Man may be a little early, a clash between the Irish Lass kicker and the Empress would be a fresh feud that could deliver great matches.
