5 Reasons why Asuka won Money in the Bank 2020

#2 Asuka might be headed towards a Single’s run

You wouldn’t expect a heel in WWE to take a turn for the worse, but then, even the best of ideas about a WWE Superstar can be discarded if you bring someone of Asuka’s caliber into the equation. Her time in NXT and everything that she has done ever since she moved to the main roster has been nothing short of brilliant.

Therefore, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if WWE decide to have Asuka go for a Single’s run with the Money in the Bank contract in her hand. She could probably turn on Kairi Sane, or the creative could keep The Kabuki Warriors out of the mix until there are other promising tag teams on either of the two brands.

It will be understandable if a few fans hope that Asuka could have both the RAW Women’s Championship and the Women’s Tag Team Championship at the same time. But ‘Asuka Two Belts’ seems to be an idea that is quite far from reality. It would be easier to have her find a solo path ahead of herself if and when she dethrones Becky Lynch.
