Top 10 Matches of Asuka In WWE

#5 Asuka vs Emma (NXT Takeover: London)

Asuka and Emma perform in front of 10,000 in London

In her first major venue WWE match, Asuka failed to disappoint in a strong showing against the Australian smart alec Emma, who was accompanied to the ring by her BFF Dana Brooke.

With Asuka and Emma both possessing previous international wrestling experience, the two managed to mesh very well in the ring, stringing together a procession of crisp technical holds and counters that made the women of the main roster at the time look amateurish in comparison.

The hammerlock reversal sequence between both wrestlers was unique. Asuka's kicks and strikes were snug and her dropkicks were clean, but the armbar takedown she executed was just stellar above all else.

Emma earned points for channeling Tajiri in attempting a rope-assisted tarantula as well.

After a ref bump, a couple false finishes and an outside distraction from Brooke, Asuka predictably cleaned house, laying out Emma with a roundhouse spin kick for the 1-2-3.
