The latest challenge to
Asuka’s record-breaking reign as NXT Women’s Champion comes tonight, when The Empress of Tomorrow defends her title against
Peyton Royce.
In reent weeks, Royce and her cohort,
Billie Kay, have been out to prove that they run NXT’s competitive Women’s division. Though they weren’t successful in capturing the title at TakeOver: San Antonio, that hasn’t stopped either Royce or Kay from asserting their dominance by any means necessary.
Royce won the right to challenge Asuka last week, defeating Liv Morgan and Ember Moon, thanks to timely interference from her close friend. Could The Femme Fatale play a major role in this championship showdown? Can Royce bring an end to Asuka’s reign, or will The Empress of Tomorrow ensure her legend grows?
