Asuka Becomes The New WWE Raw Women's Champion At WWE Night Of Champions

Bianca Belair's glorious reign has come to an end.



Asuka, the fierce and indomitable warrior, has ascended as the new WWE Raw Women's Champion, triumphing over Bianca Belair in a monumental clash at WWE Night of Champions. While Belair cunningly anticipated Asuka's mystical mist, gracefully evading its initial onslaught, she found herself utterly unprepared for the champion's ingenious contingency plan.



Asuka, displaying her cunning prowess, unleashed a tempestuous mist of her own, deftly wielding her fingers to gouge into Belair's vulnerable eyes precisely as she attempted to execute her devastating KOD. Seizing the opportune moment, Asuka unleashed a relentless barrage of thunderous head kicks, expertly finding their mark and securing the coveted title.



This remarkable achievement marks Asuka's triumphant third reign as the WWE Raw Women's Champion, reclaiming her throne with unyielding resolve after a bitter loss in April 2021. Meanwhile, Belair's awe-inspiring reign, a testament to her unrivaled dominance, endured for an astonishing 420 days, etching her name into the annals of modern-day records. Throughout her illustrious tenure, she valiantly defended her title on 13 occasions, leaving a trail of defeated challengers in her wake.
