4 potential opponents for Asuka at WrestleMania 35

WrestleMania 35 is quickly approaching, and several matches are taking shape, including the Universal and Raw Women's Championship bouts, but with two of Smackdown Live's top stars have headed to RAW for that, so it leaves Asuka up in the air.

The Empress of Tomorrow just won the title back at TLC, and had a great defence against Becky Lynch at the Royal Rumble, but since that point, she hasn't been featured in a big story, and it's time for them to set up a marquee bout.

From NXT standouts to RAW defectors, there are plenty of options for Asuka, but either way, it can't be someone from Smackdown, because there's just no one ready.

So what do you guys think? Would you like to see Asuka battle one of these 4 competitors? Who else in WWE could battle Asuka? As always, let us know all your thoughts and ideas in the comment section below.


#4 Kairi Sane

Kairi Sane is one of the hottest performers in NXT, and with her talent and close relationship with Asuka, this would be one hell of a WrestleMania match. After losing her chance at the NXT Women's Championship and appearing in her second Royal Rumble, Kairi's days in NXT are definitely numbered, so what better way to debut on the main roster then battling for the Smackdown Women's title?

Kairi has a phenomenal work rate inside the ring, and possesses easily the most beautiful top rope elbow in wrestling history, and while it may be too much too soon for the Pirate Princess, it's definitely an option. If the WWE want to make Sane into a star, they should give her and Asuka 15-20 minutes without limitations, and the two Japanese stars will put on a great bout, and even if she doesn't come out on top, Kairi Sane will look like a main event star.
