10 times WWE decisions made the fans shake their heads in 2017

#8 Bringing Asuka onto the main roster

WWE fans have been waiting for Asuka's debut on the main roster for a long time and while she is a very talented performer and very exciting to watch in the ring, she also couldn't have come at a worse time. Maybe the problem would have been fixed by sending her to Smackdown Live and building her up there, but WWE just had to have her on Raw.

Of course who could blame them for wanting her on Raw, especially since Monday Night Raw is WWE's flagship show and the place where many stars of the last couple of years have been made, but WWE obviously didn't take into account what effect Asuka would have on the Raw Women's division when making the decision.

With that being said, WWE creative didn't seem ready for Asuka on the main roster and this idea was made obvious by how minimalist her impact has been so far and how many Superstars they are currently trying to protect and build on Raw. In fact, WWE might have booked themselves in a huge hole here and the only way out would be to have her take a loss.

Absolution, Alexa Bliss, Sasha Banks, Nia Jax and Bayley all being huge stars and people that WWE wants to protect only hurts Asuka's character on the main roster and gives the company very limited options when booking her next feud. Sure, WWE could probably throw a couple of curve balls by going off of NXT history, but even that won't last forever.
