5 WWE rumors from this week you need to know (April 1st, 2019)

#2 Asuka's original WrestleMania plan

Asuka won the gold at TLC and held it until last week's SmackDown Live.

Last week on SmackDown Live, the line-up for WrestleMania 35 changed dramatically.

In a hotly-contested match, Charlotte Flair captured the SmackDown Women's Championship from Asuka, rendering the proposed number one contender's match between Naomi, Sonya Deville, Mandy Rose and Carmella moot.

According to the Observer, the title change was a last-minute call, as the original plan was for Rose to get the biggest win of her career in the Fatal 4-Way, and would have challenged the Empress for the gold at the showcase of the immortals.

Whilst no reason has been given behind the huge title change, many are speculating that it was done to further build up the Women's main event.

Instead of challenging for the title, Rose, along with Naomi, Deville and Carmella will compete in the second ever Women's WrestleMania battle royal.
