Becky Lynch vs. Asuka was a good match when it happened last year, I thought. The rematch at this year's Royal Rumble pay-per-view was also solid but that wasn't a surprise at all if you consider just how talented both these women are. But I just don't want to see them throw it down one more time.

Yes, the match is guaranteed to be great but how many times can you watch the same match over and over again and not get bored? I mean it's the same thing as the Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin storyline, where WWE is just milking the whole thing dry right now. The Becky Lynch vs. Asuka clashes felt special but now, doing yet another rematch will just take the sheen off the whole thing.

And the worst part is that there's absolutely no importance being given to the Women's Tag Team Championships at all and it feels like a division that's just been forgotten at this point in time.
