Former WWE champion sends out a cryptic tweet hinting at inner turmoil

WWE Superstar Asuka has sent a cryptic message ahead of Friday Night SmackDown.

The former WWE Women's Champion recently defended her title in a Triple Threat Match against Bianca Belair and Charlotte Flair at SummerSlam. Asuka lost her title following a surprise roll-up by Belair.

Asuka has now shared a cryptic message on Twitter, possibly hinting at her lost title and how she felt about it. She has explained how she must suffer more to amend the situation.

"L'État, c'est moi. I am the state. I am the WWE. I have betrayed all who believe in me. I have lent out my fashion belt. I don't have my fashion items because they are not returned. Yes, I have sinned. That’s what troubles me: I should like to suffer more for the expiation of my sins. Ah, if I were not Empress , I should lose my temper," she wrote.

The Empress of Tomorrow was last seen in action against Charlotte during an episode of SmackDown. It will be interesting to see what is next in store for the former women's champion.
