5 women who could win the rumoured Women's Royal Rumble

#1 Asuka

This could very well set up Asuka vs. Alexa Bliss for WrestleMania

Asuka is the female version of Goldberg, in his heyday. She has not been pinned or submitted ever since she has stepped into WWE. This includes both NXT and the main roster. Nobody is ready for Asuka, "the Empress of Tomorrow".

The RAW Women's Champion, Alexa Bliss is currently feuding with the invading trio of Mandy Rose, Paige and Sonya Deville from NXT, all of whom are out to steal her crown. It seems like it'll be a while before Alexa Bliss clashes with Asuka for the prize she holds.

What better way to set up the big match, than by having Asuka win the first ever Women's Royal Rumble? And also, inevitably have her win the title at WrestleMania in New Orleans.

Do you think the Women's Royal Rumble will happen, in January 2018? Who do you think will win this first-ever contest? Let us know in the comments. We'd love to hear from you.
