7 things WWE subtly told us on RAW: Huge break-up teased, major reason why Lesnar isn't defending title at Royal Rumble (December 6th, 2020)

#4 Asuka is Becky Lynch's kryptonite, but not for long

Becky Lynch was confronted by Asuka

Becky Lynch has done a better job of anyone before her in putting over Asuka. Her respect for The Empress is clear and she declared her as the "only woman" to ever beat her fair and square.

She was, of course, referring to last year's Royal Rumble 2019 opener where Asuka submitted her, retaining the SmackDown Women's Championship. This time around, it's Becky Lynch defending the title and it's going to be an interesting bout. We expect it to surpass their last contest, which was fantastic in its own right.

WWE has done a great job with the dynamic of The Man and The Empress, with Asuka being presented as the kryptonite to Becky Lynch. It's a great bit of storytelling since Becky Lynch acknowledged herself as the "golden goose" of the company.

We do, however, expect the RAW Women's Champion to finally overcome Asuka.
