The wrestling world is prone to botches as wrestlers are humans and, to err is human. That being said, Asuka faced Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Championship at the WWE Night of Champions held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. While making her entrance, a botch took place, but she handled it like a pro.

Seeing her cover the botch so amazingly, the entire WWE Universe gathered to heap praise on ‘The Empress of Tomorrow’. Let’s dive deep and find out what was the botch and how did she cover it so flawlessly.

Asuka saves herself from embarrassment

‘The Empress of Tomorrow’ always enters any arena with her face covered by one of her many masks. At WWE Night of Champions, as she walked down the ramp, her mask came off her face, and was about to fall to the ground. But she didn’t let that happen as she quickly caught her mask in an effortless manner.

The online fans praise her agility and how effortlessly she saved herself from getting embarrassed in front of the audience. Here are some comments from the WWE Universe.

Fans can’t stop talking about the segment.

The new Raw Women’s Champion has impressed the WWE Universe with her agility.

Not only did she save herself from embarrassment, but she also defeated Belair and captured the Raw Women’s Champion that day.

The Empress of Tomorrow becomes the new Raw Women’s Champ

Asuka knew defeating Belair won’t be easy, therefore she devised a plan to make her opponent lose at Night of Champions. The ending segment of the match saw her spit poison mist on her hand, which was covered with white tape.

When her opponent went for a K.O.D., she rubbed her poison-mist-covered hand on her eyes, giving her the opportunity to pin the champ and win the title. This was the second time she challenged ‘The EST’ for the title this year and this time she won the match.

The first time she faced the former Raw Women’s Champion was WrestleMania 39. It was after she became the no. 1 contender for the title after winning an Elimination Chamber match. That time she lost to her opponent. After weeks, she decided to go after the Raw title once again.
