After WWE TLC, an Empress reigns over Team Blue. What will Asuka do after her historic SmackDown Women’s Championship victory over Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair? Find out tonight at 8/7 C on USA Network!

Asuka emerged victorious in the first-ever Women’s TLC Match on Sunday night, becoming the new SmackDown Women’s Champion. Though she got an unexpected assist from Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey, The Empress of Tomorrow has declared that she is now “the man” after defeating Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair.

Will anyone step up to try and bring Asuka’s reign to a quick end?

Though Asuka is sure to be celebrating her newfound championship glory, The Man and The Queen are no doubt seething after Ronda Rousey shoved the ladder they had been climbing, sending them tumbling to the canvas and allowing The Empress of Tomorrow to claim the SmackDown Women’s Title for herself.

How will Lynch and Flair respond to The Baddest Woman on The Planet meddling in their affairs?

Following his tirade about the WWE Universe and his leather-strapped WWE Championship Sunday afternoon, “The New” Daniel Bryan took one step closer to making his worldview a reality, defeating AJ Styles to hang onto the WWE Title at WWE TLC.

Will Bryan make good on his vow to introduce a sustainable championship title? Will Styles still be on the hunt for the champion?

Think all 4 of them are in charge but I doubt the other 3 will appear on SD

In kayfabe terms I'm thinking booking? remember I MAKE THE MATCHES AROUND HERE!
But if Shane and the other McMahons are in charge, why would she make matches? The way they explained it, sounds like GMs are obsolete

They don't wanna have to deal with booking everyone so they just give the final okay to Paige? Isnt that how it works with the actual bookers lol

Since automatic rematches aren’t a thing anymore; I’m guessing these two have a match at some point, winner faces Asuka at Rumble.

Charlotte wins, faces Asuka. Becky goes in the Rumble and wins it

I'd be surprised if any of the McMahons show up regularly on SmackDown.

WWE still needs Paige on air so she'll most likely continue to be GM.

When did they say auto rematches weren't a thing anymore? That a new regime thing from last night?

Isn’t Shane on the show every week?
