Nia Jax Seemingly Lined Up As Asuka's First Challenger For The RAW Women's Championship

We thought Shayna Baszler would get the first shot at Asuka's Raw Women's Championship, but after the events of this week's episode, it looks like Nia Jax is being lined up as The Empress' first challenger.

Nia Jax is on a collision course with new Raw Women's Champion Asuka after the events of this week's episode.

Kairi Sane invited her Kabuki Warriors partner - who is now officially a babyface - out to the ring for a typically entertaining celebration segment, but it wasn't long before The Irresistible Force spoiled the party. Jax told the duo that there was nothing to celebrate, as Becky Lynch simply handed Asuka the title.

She then tried to intimidate Sane, but The Empress of Tomorrow charged her out of the ring with a Hip Attack (which is really as Ass Attack, but we get that WWE might run into some problems if they called it that).

Anyway, later on, Nia stalked Kairi backstage while the poor darlin' was just trying to practice her recorder skills, and rammed her head into a steel crate. When Asuka found out what happened she confronted Jax, grabbed her by the hair and delivered a stiff kick to her face.

No match has officially been set, but we assume Nia Jax vs. Asuka for the Raw Women's Championship is in the cards.
