Yesterday we reported on SÚPER LUCHAS the tense situation currently between WWE and Brock Lesnar; a tantrum that even it is said would put at risk the main event of WrestleMania 34 and was noticed under the last edition of Monday Night Raw. Because, when Paul Heyman announced a confrontation the day before, finally "The Beast" did not show up on the red show, forcing to improvise with a promo from Roman Reigns that was a direct stab at the absent.
Now we know that that planned segment was not the only one discarded that night. Dave Meltzer, under his Wrestling Observer Radio, reported that Asuka's participation was going to be completely different from what we saw. According to the journalist, she was planning to star in an important announcement: to confirm her opponent for "The Showcase of the Immortals".
And yes, it is confirmed that Charlotte will be her opponent, but Meltzer explains that WWE will wait until after Fastlane, where Ric Flair's daughter will defend the SmackDown Women's Championship. Remember that the PPV is scheduled to take place on March 11. It's logical that the company will postpone the moment in order not to absurdly spoil that the champion will retain her title there against Ruby Riott.
As we said in this honorable house, Charlotte was rumored as Ronda Rousey's opponent at WM for months, but the pressure from Stephanie McMahon has had an effect. We already saw that everything is heading towards a tag team match, with Kurt Angle and Triple H accompanying the women.
On the other hand, Nia Jax will go against Alexa Bliss for the Raw Women's Championship, putting this division with three important matches in the card; also taking into account the very likely one between Sasha Banks and Bayley.
It's time for women to headline WrestleMania
Meanwhile, Asuka will face Jax again next week, in an edition of Monday Night Raw to be held at the BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Follow the road to WrestleMania 34 with SÚPER LUCHAS.
