The promo was somewhat clunky, as Asuka can't be relied on to speak on the mic for long and Charlotte isn't her father when it comes to cutting promos. The good news is that, like AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura, fans are already sold on this match, so they didn't need to do much.

Cody Rhodes' uncle is a WWE Hall of Famer. More details HERE.

It tied up some loose ends from Raw. We clearly understand now that Asuka wants a challenge for her first main roster championship match. Asuka doesn't consider Alexa Bliss a challenge (a point which she'll make clear on Monday), hence, she chose Charlotte.

Charlotte, for her part, sold the match with the narrative everyone was thinking: "What if The Queen went one-on-one with The Empress of Tomorrow? Who will bow down?"

That's what everyone was thinking to begin with. Now, we can build on that foundation to the biggest women's match in WWE history to date.
