Ember Moon gets yet another big opportunity at Asuka's championship
The first time they met was in Orlando on Wrestlemania weekend, where Asuka comprehensively defeated Ember Moon, making her a casualty in her record-breaking reign of terror. Ember Moon took that defeat to heart and swore revenge, as Asuka broke record after record.

This week, Moon took on the much larger Lei'D Tapa from the MMA world, and despite the odds, made short work of the monstrous woman. She called out Asuka for a rematch and thankfully, William Regal was listening. Regal made the match official for NXT Takeover: Brooklyn III and Ember Moon finally has a chance to break Asuka's amazing streak for good.
To be honest, we see Ember Moon winning this big match. We cannot imagine anyone else dethroning Asuka right now, considering how the rest of the women's division has been booked. NXT has protected Moon's finisher, and we're certain it will come into play come Takeover: Brooklyn. Asuka returns next week and that should make things very interesting indeed.
