But before she joined NXT, the Empress of Tomorrow had proven herself in her native Japan, both in and out of the ring.
Early in her wrestling career, the future SmackDown Women's Champion wrote for XBOX Magazine Japan and also did graphic design work for the Nintendo DS console.
Her work writing for XBOX Magazine even allowed her to be sponsored by Microsoft and she was able to wear official logos as part of her ring gear.
In case that wasn't enough, Asuka founded and still owns a hair salon in Yokohama, Japan.
Called 'Another Heaven', the salon is very popular and has even been patronized by former IWGP Heavyweight Champion, Kenny Omega.
