Asuka’s injury turns out to not be serious as she has returned to the ring.
As a recap, Asuka tweaked her knee two weeks ago on SmackDown during a post match attack against Bayley and Naomi. She was removed from that weekend’s live events due to caution to get more tests done on her knee.
Asuka was still on screen this past Friday during another attack on Naomi and then Bianca Belair. She primarily used the mist to take down Naomi before joining the attack.
On Saturday’s house show for the Road to WrestleMania Asuka joined IYO SKY and Kairi Sane and took on Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, and Naomi in a losing effort. Asuka would not be on the Sunday show and was replaced by Dakota Kai.
Rhea Ripley was in action as well and defeated both Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax to retain the Women’s World Title. Ripley had some fun giving Jax the stink face and so much so that Baszler wanted it done to her.
