Asuka danced around with news and then came back to the ring where Becky Lynch was waiting for her. It was then when The Man announced that she was going to be a mother and she can’t fight anymore which is why the title was kept inside the briefcase.
Becky Lynch gave a smile before embracing Asuka and making her exit through the ramp. She told the fans that she will be missing them, and headed to the back as Asuka continued her celebration.
