#2. What will happen when Asuka confronts RAW Women's Champion Sasha Banks and Bayley?

Is this going to be the summer of Asuka? The former RAW Women's Champion secured her SummerSlam title match against the woman she lost the title to - Sasha Banks, after defeating her tag team partner and ally - SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley.

On SmackDown, Bayley was set to find out her SummerSlam opponent in a Triple-Brand battle royal - which just so happened to be won by Asuka. The Empress Asuka has a major task on her hands on both RAW and SmackDown.

With Asuka now having two matches at SummerSlam 2020, she has the opportunity to become the fourth woman in 18 months to become a Double Champion.

While we don't expect her to do it, we expect Asuka to be overwhelmed on RAW by the Golden Role Models. While she had Kairi Sane before, she doesn't anymore. The numbers game will eventually catch up to her and she could be on the receiving end of a beatdown this week on RAW.
