Asuka seemingly lost a tooth in her tag team match on Monday Night RAW
This week’s WWE Monday Night RAW saw Asuka and Charlotte Flair team up to fight against Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax in a tag team match.
The bout took a grim turn when Asuka seemingly lost at least one tooth after suffering a kick to the face. This happened when Asuka had Jax locked in an armbar.
Jax’s teammate, Baszler, came rushing in to free her from the hold and kicked the RAW women’s champion in her face. The contact was very hard and it looked like she lost a tooth inside the ring.
The severity of the accident was further highlighted by Baszler checking up on the Japanese after she kicked her.
While the concern was obviously there inside the ring, ‘The Queen of Spades’ posted a not-so-sympathetic response on her Twitter. She quoted the video and captioned it ‘#Reality’.
What is the injury update on Asuka after losing a tooth on RAW?
The promotion is yet to update the WWE universe regarding the status of the champion after her injury.
There are no reports or credible mentions of the aftermath of the incident, so it remains to be seen how it impacts her in the coming weeks.
Nevertheless, Baszler’s mean-sounding tweet, which is obviously a part of the storyline, would probably not have come had the incident been very serious.
Asuka and Charlotte lost the match after ‘The Queen’ accidentally kicked her teammate instead of the opponents. This resulted in a pinfall on Asuka, who refused to take Flair’s help when after the bell rang.
Charlotte’s storyline with Ric Flair and Lacey Evans was abruptly ended on the same night as Evans had to take a break from the show due to a pregnancy. A feud between Charlotte and Asuka could now be where their storylines are headed.
