Tonight's episode of WWE RAW featured a moment that the WWE Universe isn't going to forget for a long time to come. RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch announced her pregnancy to open the show, and handed her title belt over to Asuka, who had won the Women's Money In The Bank Ladder match last night at the namesake PPV.

WWE legend Batista has now posted a tweet reacting to Asuka becoming the RAW Women's Champion. The Animal seemed incredibly happy at what transpired on RAW and dubbed Asuka as being his hero. You can check out the tweet here.
Asuka's run on WWE's main roster
Asuka has had a pretty mixed main roster run so far. She won the first-ever Women's Royal Rumble match in 2018 and went on to lose to Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 34, thus finally ending her undefeated streak. On the Road to WrestleMania 35, Asuka was the SmackDown Women's Champion but was defeated by Flair again in a match that took place mere days before The Show of Shows.

Asuka's Money in the Bank win came as a pleasant surprise to many, but fans had no idea that she would become the RAW Women's Champion in the way she ultimately did. It would be interesting to see how WWE handles Asuka this time around, now that she has bagged the top prize of the Women's division on the Red brand.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
