Thanks for getting those. I haven't watched the show yet and didn't want to spoil the results for me, so couldn't update the results. I appreciate you putting those up

Asuka is the only reason for me to watch Smackdown right now.. It's not much better than RAW except it's shorter.

Asuka, the Samckdown women's champion.. It's been a long time since Smackdown had a worthy women's champion like her.
