Asuka is the most underrated Champion on the WWE RAW or SmackDown roster by a huge margin, especially if you consider how good she is in the ring and how overlooked her reign has been as compared to say, the Sasha Banks and Bayley storyline. In addition to her in-ring skills, Asuka has incredible comic timing as well, and her segment with The New Day for the duration that it lasted, was fantastic. The saddest thing about Asuka right now, is the lack of competition in terms of heels for her, in the WWE RAW brand at the moment.

AYY HURT BUSINESS VS NEW DAY FOR TAG TITLES AFTER SURVIVOR SERIES WILL BE A BANGER
Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE
The other great part of the segment was a potential feud between The Hurt Business and The New Day for the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships which should be amazing.
Asuka needs a good antagonist to feud with as well, and in time, one hopes it will be someone like Lacey Evans or Peyton Royce.
