WWE has confirmed that Asuka is still the RAW Women’s Champion.
As noted, Sunday’s “The Horror Show at Extreme Rules” pay-per-view saw the title dispute between Asuka and WWE women’s team champion Sasha Banks end in controversy. The finale saw Banks arguing with the referee when Asuka came out from behind with a mouthful of green mist. Asuka spat out the mist as Banks turned around, but Banks ducked and Asuka blinded the referee. Banks’ partner, SmackDown women’s champion Bayley, ran into the ring while Asuka had Banks tap on Asuka’s lock and rip off the referee’s shirt. Then she put on her shirt and counted Banks’ three beads with Asuka.
Then Bayley asked the timekeeper to ring the bell and threatened him when he refused to do so. Banks’ musical success when Bayley presented him with the title, and they left together, possessing the company’s four best women’s straps.
The WWE website has confirmed that Asuka is still the champion. However, there was no mention of an official match result.
The story is, Banks still holds the title in tonight’s post-Extreme Rules RAW. As seen above, WWE released a post-show video of Sarah Schreiber catching up with Banks and Bayley. The Golden Role Models promised to explain everything when they celebrate on RAW tonight. They then fled with the title of Asuka.
Asuka posted several short tweets after the show where she reacted to the controversial finale, which you can see below.
Banks also commented later Extreme Rules and said that she and Bayley are officially taking over the company. She called herself “2 Beltz Banks” in the tweet.
“Officially take over the entire company! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha # 2beltzbanks #ExtremeRules,” he wrote.
On a related note, WWE also released a post-show video of referee Eddie Orengo dealing with the aftermath of Asuka’s wandering green mist. You can watch that video below, along with Bayley’s jab on Orengo, and several related tweets from Asuka, Banks, and Bayley:
