After Asuka requested a challenge from anyone at The Royal Rumble, three women stepped up to the plate in Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, and Carmella. Now we find out that it will be Becky Lynch after defeating the aforementioned two in a Triple Threat match to end SmackDown Live.

All three women were former SmackDown Women’s Champions with a legitimate claim to the title opportunity. Carmella defeated  Charlotte and Asuka twice as champion, Charlotte has defeated Asuka as champion as well and never lost to her in a singles match, and Becky never was cleanly defeated for her title and Asuka haven’t beaten her either. The three would settle their differences in a triple threat rematch from SummerSlam, where since they have all grown and developed new personalities and attributes since. Carmella and Charlotte would put up a valiant effort, but it would all lead to Lynch trapping Carmella in the Dis-Arm Her for the submission victory.

After the match, Asuka would appear to stare down her new challenger as SmackDown closes the air.

Are you guys excited for the match? Post in our comments below!
