This week on WWE RAW, Asuka and Kairi Sane celebrated Asuka’s victory at WWE Money In The Bank, which made her the WWE RAW Women’s Champion when Becky Lynch had to forfeit the championship. “I’m so happy,” said Asuka. Sane recapped Asuka’s impressive accomplishments throughout her WWE career and called her a Grand Slam Champion. She then played some celebratory music on a recorder but Nia Jax interrupted the celebration. Jax told Asuka there’s nothing to celebrate. “You were handed the RAW Women’s Title,” said Jax. “You lucked your way into the greatest temp job ever.”

Jax said she’s more worthy than Asuka, so she’ll replace her as the champion. Asuka attacked Jax and knocked her out of the ring.
