As seen on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, The Empress Of Tomorrow squared off against Rhea Ripley in a singles match. What’s interesting about Asuka’s appearance was that she didn’t wear any face paint, the first time she ever did so since joining WWE.
Unfortunately for Asuka, she was unable to defeat Ripley, despite her best efforts and misting Dominik Mysterio. Asuka was clearly frustrated after her crushing loss. Following RAW’s conclusion, Asuka took to Twitter and hinted at taking a break from WWE television, as the former RAW Women’s Champion stated that she will be going on a trip.
We will have to wait and see how long Asuka will be away from WWE television, if she misses any time at all.
