Peyton Royce Calls Out WWE for Not Giving the Opportunity to Deserving Superstars

Peyton Royce achieved a lot of fame and praise during her time with Billie Kay as The IIconics. But ever since they disbanded, Royce has been lost in the shuffle, until now. Royce faced WWE Raw Women’s Champion Asuka tonight on Raw after cutting a fiery promo on Raw Talk two weeks ago.

Peyton Royce gets her opportunity against Asuka after fiery promo

The former Women’s Tag Team Champion cut the promo of her career two weeks ago on Raw Talk. She clarified she was done waiting for an opportunity to come her way. She said she would prove herself and asked management to give her Asuka. Guess what? She got it!

Royce cut an impressive promo ahead of her match against Asuka tonight on Raw. She said she would’ve gone on Raw Talk to cut that promo years ago if she knew it would lead her to get what she deserves. But despite that, Peyton Royce was annoyed. The reason? She had to get viral to get the opportunity she deserves.

She said, “I wake up every morning, and I battle with these thoughts in my head, knowing that I tick every box, and still wondering what’s the problem? The problem isn’t me. I am good enough to deserve these opportunities without having to ask for it. I’ve been ready for years.”

Royce finally gets her hands on Asuka

Finally, Royce and Asuka squared off in the second match of the night. And boy, they did not disappoint! Peyton Royce looked a million bucks. You could see the confidence and determination in her eyes.

Royce surprised Asuka with a series of moves. She even rolled her up in unique sequences; something Asuka hasn’t seen from an opponent in some time now. But, as they say, “No one is ready for Asuka,” Royce wasn’t either.

Asuka bounced back in the match and connected with a series of german suplexes to soften her opponent. After a nice back and forth, the ‘Empress of Tomorrow’ locked Peyton Royce in the Asuka lock. The Australian tapped out, falling just short. But her performance impressed everyone for sure.

Royce’s promo on Raw Talk and the one ahead of her match proves how good a talker she is. However, she is a workhorse in the ring. Watching her get the better of Asuka in some parts makes us believe that with a little more effort, she will be ready for Asuka. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below!
