Once in a while, there comes an exceptional segment where WWE wants to bring the real expressions out of superstars. One such instance happened during the bygone episode of Raw where Becky Lynch vacated the Women’s Title to Asuka. But in general, WWE angles that air on TV are entirely scripted where the superstars do know what they are supposed to do of performing the sequence.

As seen on the show, Becky Lynch relinquished the WWE RAW Women’s Championship to Asuka while revealing that she hadn’t won a championship opportunity at Money In The Bank. Instead, the match itself was contested for the Women’s Championship, itself. The decision was made as Becky Lynch is pregnant who’s expecting her first child with her partner, Seth Rollins.

After knowing the news, Asuka was seen extremely happy for Becky Lynch and as well as for winning the Raw Women’s Championship. According to PWInsider.com, Asuka’s sincere reaction to the breaking news was genuine as she had no clue about Becky Lynch being pregnant. She got to know about the same just like anyone else among the fans.

 

The more interesting thing is that Asuka was also unaware that she was winning the championship while winning the 2020 Money In The Bank ladder match that was pre-recorded at the WWE Headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut. WWE officials reportedly kept this pregnancy news secret until Lynch herself revealed it, just to bring out Asuka’s genuine response.

Asuka was the lucky one under the circumstances as she could become the Women’s Champion with the least efforts. This title win had seen her achieve a major milestone in WWE. She is the only woman in WWE history who boasts of winning a Money in the Bank briefcase, a Royal Rumble, NXT Women’s Title, SmackDown Women’s Title, tag team titles, and the RAW Women’s title.
