In case you didn't know...

Earlier this week, WWE officially confirmed that Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte Flair will be main eventing this year's WrestleMania 35 show, with Rousey defending her Raw Women's Championship against Lynch and Flair in a Triple Threat Match.

As far as Asuka was concerned, 'The Empress of Tomorrow' was without an opponent for this year's WrestleMania and WWE had initially booked a fatal four way between Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville, Carmella, and Naomi with the winner getting a shot at Asuka's title at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

However, it looks like WWE decided to make a change in plans the very last minute and instead gave Charlotte a shot at the SD Women's Title once again.

The heart of the matter

With her historic eighth Women's Title win in WWE, Charlotte Flair has now ended Asuka's first reign as SmackDown Women's Champion right at the mark of her 100th day as champion.

Flair, however, is now all set to headline her first WrestleMania show as the new SmackDown Women's Champion.

Asuka, meanwhile, took to Twitter and opened up on her devastating loss for the very first time, as she posted a very short but definitely a heartbreaking tweet which read "over".

Now, this tweet is likely to suggest the end of Asuka's first reign as champion, however, it could also mean that Asuka's dream of heading into WrestleMania as a champion is now over.

Nevertheless, you have to feel for 'The Empress of Tomorrow'.

What's next?

Charlotte Flair will walk into WrestleMania 35 as the new SmackDown Women's Champion and it'll be interesting to see if WWE decides to make this year's main event a double title match with both Rousey and Flair defending their belts against one another and Becky Lynch.
