WWE Reportedly Wants Asuka To Turn Heel – PWInsider reports that there has been a pitch to turn Asuka heel and there has been talk about Asuka challenging Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s Championship at the upcoming WWE Night of Champions PLE.
At the moment, there is no word on if the heel turn will happen but if there’s a pitch for a match against Belair at Night of Champions, then it seems likely to happen because babyface vs. babyface feuds are rare in WWE.
Tonight’s SmackDown could be the perfect place for Asuka’s heel turn as it will air live from Knoxville, Tennessee, which is Belair’s hometown.
WWE still has not announced what will happen with the women’s titles after SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley was drafted to RAW, and Belair to the blue brand. A similar situation happened in 2021 with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, which was resolved with a Title Exchange Ceremony where the champions switched titles.
Asuka wrestled and lost to Belair at WrestleMania and during the build-up they hinted at Asuka going down a darker path. Following the loss, Asuka promised to bring chaos to the boring Women’s Division and to the WWE.
