Update On When Asuka Will Debut On The Raw Brand

On Monday, WWE revealed that ex-NXT Women’s Champion Asuka, who recently relinquished her championship due to a broken collarbone, is heading to the main roster, and she’ll be a part of the Raw brand.

In this week’s edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer noted that Asuka will likely debut on the main roster in November.

“It was announced on TV this week that Asuka will be joining the Raw brand, which means rivalries with Bliss, Jax and Banks are on the horizon. She should be starting there around November. When they made the decision to bring her up, there was discussion given to both rosters and it was up in the air until recently.”
