Asuka appeared on Raw in a backstage segment with Iyo Sky and left with her suitcase as Michael Cole said that her future is up in the air.
Asuka was shown coming into the locker room and meeting Sky. Asuka said that for years she had been looking for someone to take her spot and Sky is now the person to do it. Asuka hugged Sky and told her that she was very proud of her.
Sky talked some in Japanese and then said that even when they’re fighting in the ring, Asuka would always be family for her.
The two hugged again and Sky said, “Goodbye, Asuka-san,” as cameras showed Asuka exiting the building carrying her suit case.
This is Asuka’s last appearance for a while as the Empress of Tomorrow is rumored to be going back to Japan for family matters. She remains part of the company but there is no return date for her.
