#4. Asuka is SummerSlam-bound after a big win on RAW

A solid match

This was a solid match - just as we expected. Last week on RAW, Bayley was taken by surprise when Sasha Banks declared (without her consent) that Asuka would need to get through Bayley to earn a RAW Women's title shot.

Asuka had already beaten the SmackDown Women's Champion before, but this time, the stakes were much higher. She managed to get through Bayley after a long struggle and submitted her - continuing to have her number, dating back to 2016 in NXT.

It seems like Bayley simply can't get one over Asuka and it could take her longer than Becky Lynch to get one over the former RAW Women's Champion. Either way, Asuka vs Sasha Banks is now official for WWE SummerSlam and we expect to see them have their best match yet.

While The Golden Role Models have been dominating the entire women's division in the pandemic era, we fully expect Asuka to regain the RAW Women's Championship at SummerSlam 2020. Otherwise, it'll cause more creative disarray.
