#6 Asuka vs. Sasha Banks (Raw, January 29th)

This first time ever meeting was only a taste of what these two could potentially deliver, but it sure was a salivating one.

A brutal physical contest, it came the night after the Royal Rumble, where Asuka won and Sasha lasted nearly an hour.

Of course, this match became infamous for Sasha Banks' botched suicide dive to the outside of the ring, but that wasn't the only stiff blow a competitor got in this match. Asuka's kicks and Sasha's knees told the story on instant replay.

The ending came with a bit of technical wizardry between the two. The Banks Statement was locked in, Asuka almost got to the rope to counter it, but Sasha rolled back to the center of the ring. Asuka, however, used the transition to duck underneath Sasha's arm and get the Asuka Lock and the tapout.

Unfortunately, the crowd wasn't a good one. This match might have been much better with a hotter one.
