This week's episode of RAW opened with an emotional announcement from the RAW Women's Champion, as Becky Lynch confirmed that she is pregnant. 'The Man' relinquished her title and said that she would be stepping away from WWE for a while.

As a result, the Money in the Bank 2020 winner, Asuka, became the new RAW Women's Champion. Even though Asuka won the coveted Women's title of the Red brand for the first time in her WWE career, she made sure to participate in Lynch's celebration with equal enthusiasm.

Following the episode, Asuka took to her Instagram account to share how 'easy' it was for her to become the Champion. She posted a picture with the RAW Women's Championship along with the caption "EZ-PZ", which is her signature statement in WWE.
