Asuka vs. Stacey Cullen
Looking better.

Leave it to WWE logic to justify releasing Emma a week after she put on two competitive matches with the supposedly unstoppable Asuka, rendering those episodes rather pointless.

Again, it must be stressed that during her NXT career, Asuka didn't squash everyone, but she did squash the lowest rungs on the ladder. This week, WWE got on the right track by taking the Strowman route and having Asuka squash an enhancement talent, making her actually look special and unstoppable this time around.

This is a route that should continue for a while until Survivor Series, where Asuka should be the star of Raw's women's team if they want her to get over.
