Trending
Asuka was tasked with the added duty of joining Jerry Lawler on commentary on the most recent episode of RAW.

The former NXT Women's Champion was praised for her lively work and her infectious enthusiasm was the reason why WWE made the call to get her into the commentary booth during Rey Mysterio's match against Andrade.
Jerry 'The King' Lawler revealed on the latest episode of his podcast that the company put Asuka in the commentary team to add some noise and vigour as the empty arena show desperately needed it.
They put Asuka out there to help with the commentary and to try to help make some noise and keep things as loud as possible during the match where it wouldn’t be silence so that helped a lot. It’s a tough go and I felt sorry for Rey and Andrade and Zelina but they still did great. H/t Credit: WrestlingNews.co
CM Punk and Renee Young had special praise for Asuka's commentary and it was certainly well deserved.
Asuka passed the acid test and we would love to see her in this role more often going forward.
