Asuka is once again a champion as she defeated Bianca Belair to win the RAW Women’s Championship at WWE Night Of Champions 2023 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
The finish came when Belair attempted to hit Asuka with the KOD, but The Empress Of Tomorrow used her mist toxin to blind her opponent. Asuka then landed a series of kicks on Belair to score the pinfall victory and capture the RAW Women’s Title.
Belair’s 420-day title reign now comes to an end. The “EST Of WWE” cemented herself as the longest-reigning WWE RAW Women’s Champion of the modern era, previously surpassing Becky Lynch.
