This coming Sunday at WWE TLC, we will see Asuka and Lana take on WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax for the titles. In an interview with Sportskeeda, Lana says there is more to her special bond with Asuka than more wrestling fans realize.
Lana discussed her chemistry with Asuka in the ring and how she helped improve her confidence:
“There’s so many things that I love about Asuka,” Lana said. “She is such a badass. She is one of the greatest wrestlers, in-ring competitors of all-time. And no one doubts how incredible she is. So, you know, and she turns to me and says, ‘let’s do a TikTok dance trend,’ and I’m like, ‘wait, what?’ We need to eat raw eggs and we need to train, but she’ll be like, ‘no, no, no.’ And as important to do this dance trend, to warm up, and be happy, and you know, have fun, and we do it. We have fun for 10 minutes and we have this fun tik tok dance and everyone loves it. It’s like Asuka is showing me that we need to fight and be focused but also to have fun.”
Lana also commented on how much she doubted herself.
“When I was doubting myself, the person that was always saying her affirmations, she reminded me to say my affirmations,” Lana said. “And then she reminded me to breathe and have fun and do a TikTok dance for 10 minutes. She knows that I love dancing and I just think that’s what a real friend is.”
Lana will go one-on-one tonight on Monday Night RAW with Nia Jax in singles competition.
