Following the elimination of Sasha Banks, Asuka was left to fend for herself against two formidable opponents in Tamina Snuka and Natalya.
Tamina missed a Superfly Splash from the top rope, which led to Asuka applying an armbar to tap her out.

With The Queen of Harts the last remaining member for SmackDown Live, Asuka notched her second elimination in a matter of minutes by driving Natalya into the mat and putting her in her signature Asuka Lock (crossface chickenwing).
Asuka was the NXT Women's Champion for 510 days before vacating the title following a collarbone injury. She then moved up to the main roster and debuted with Raw at the TLC event on Oct. 22.
As she declared this summer, "Nobody is ready for Asuka."
