Lana may have broken the streak of being put through a table by Nia Jax every week, but she must face her fears on next week's WWE RAW.

Last night, Asuka faced Shayna Baszler in a one-on-one match. Lana and Nia Jax were present near ringside, and Jax eventually attacked Lana. When Lana escaped from Nia's clutches, it was enough to distract Baszler inside the ring.

This distraction allowed Asuka to pin The Queen of Spades and pick up the victory. Later backstage, Asuka gave Lana a pep talk about the latter's match against Nia Jax next week.

Lana felt a bit confident after Asuka encouraged her backstage. But Jax looming over the underdog to end the segment might have increased Lana's self-doubts heading into next week's WWE RAW.

The only way Lana goes over next week is through some shenanigans. And given that Asuka will be teaming up with her at WWE TLC to wrestle for the tag team titles, The Empress of Tomorrow might help Lana overcome her bully in the next episode.
