Asuka vs Priscilla Zuniga
Asuka will defend her title against Ember Moon at NXT TakeOver: Orlando and she used this match to make a statement. She took to the mic before the match started, calling out Ember and showing her what fate had in store for her.
She followed it with a kick to Zuniga’s head, taking her down. An unforgiving Asuka followed it up with more kicks as chants of “Asuka’s gonna kill you” broke out. Zuniga made the mistake of slapping Asuka across the face and the Empress replied with a jumping hip attack followed by a flurry of kicks to Zuniga’s chest. Asuka stalked her opponent before hitting her with a nasty German Suplex followed by a Buzzsaw Kick to the head.
The Empress then covered Zuniga but broke the count herself before the 3-count. She followed it up with knees to the chest followed by the Asuka Lock. Zuniga tapped out almost immediately but Asuka only broke the hold when she was finally satisfied.
