It's official: Becky Lynch will defend the Raw Women's Championship against Asuka at the Royal Rumble.
Asuka handed Lynch a submission loss at the Rumble last year, and she has never been able to let that go. The Man feels that if she is indeed going to be seen as the face of the company moving forward then she needs to prove it to herself that she can defeat the Empress of Tomorrow.
For her part, one half of The Kabuki Warriors is more than happy to accept the challenge, and is now intent on becoming "Asuka Two-Belts."
Lynch revealed that the match was set tonight on Raw during an interview segment.
