The NXT Women’s Division: Asuka vs Nia Jax
The NXT development territory has been a great attraction for a different audience than what WWE usually attracts. The women's division is one of the factors that NXT put on the map and led to skilled wrestlers like Charlotte Flair and Bayley gaining prominence.
As part of the female wrestlers who moved from NXT to the main roster, there are Asuka (who has been undefeated since her arrival in WWE in 2016) and Nia Jax, who had a prominent role in NXT but did not win the championship. In their title match on NXT, Asuka emerged victorious. However, it seems that the wrestlers would like to face each other on the main roster. Since Asuka debuted, they have not had a televised match together, although they were on the same team in Survivor Series representing Raw.
Now, Jax has reached out to Asuka on Twitter:

"I was pretty clear with what I said."
Therefore, there have been rumors of a potential rivalry between them. It is clear that they are the two most dominant wrestlers in the WWE roster, closely followed by Charlotte. Undoubtedly, a face-off between them in Royal Rumble would be one of the most exciting moments of the night.
