He's ahead of the curve on this one. By WrestleMania, the Asuka backlash will be in full swing.

I've tried to argue this since in NXT where she just ran over everyone after she won the title. It just was a little flawed to me that everyone hates on Reigns so much for superman booking but Asuka was praised for it. I get it she's good but she is massively overhyped by everyone. What's her character development. That she just beats everyone? That gets old real fast and I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did with everyone loving it.

I love Asuka as a wrestler. I think she could have really entertaining matches with most women in NXT.
I think being watered down in WWE plus the awful booking will have fans turning on her (like most people in WWE) pretty quickly.
Not that I’m complaining because I love Emma, but if they were trying to show that Asuka was such a dominant force, she probably shouldn’t have had two matches with the resident female jobber and basically have her ass handed to her for the majority of both matches.

People saying they dont get the Edge hype LMAO when he's one of the best to ever do it, period. Asuka is just getting started in the WWE and a comment from a legit veteran makes you guys this mad? You're marks.

Watch Asuka vs. Nikki Cross from NXT this past June. Maybe then some of you will get it

I disagree with Edge. and To those saying Asuka is sloppy, Look at Sasha "Im a Melina Wannabe" Banks for sloppiness.

Maybe Asuka doesn't get the Edge hype. I get the Asuka hype more than I ever got the Edge hype.

What's her character development. That she just beats everyone? That gets old real fast and I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did with everyone loving it. I like Asuka. I'm not her biggest fan but I won't discount her talent. She's particularly good when she has a capable opponent like Moon or Cross to work with. With that said, your not really comparing apples to apples. Reigns has been booked as an unstoppable face teetering the line of turning heel every so often but that never comes to fruition. Asuka started as a face and eventually became a cocky heel due to her undefeated streak by the end of her NXT run. Over time her character developed an inflated ego. I'm hoping they show that aspect of her sooner rather than later because she was really nailing that before getting called up. I'm getting the vibe in this thread that the people "not getting the hype" is due to them seeing an Asuka match here or there but not actually following her path to the main roster. That's no fault of the viewer, it just means that WWE has to figure out a way to transition these wrestlers better - and like many have stated, that starts with the booking.

Just like with Nakamura, the accent is going to be a setback for her. She won't be as big on the main roster. Count on it!

Reigns- crap kicked out of him, occasional comeback, crap kicked out of him, comeback, wins Asuka- Both Nikki, and Ember came really close to actually beating her. Ruby Riot and The Iconic Duo almost outsmarted her and won. Asuka is a badass buts she's looked vulnerable.

See here’s the thing. I haven’t turned on anyone that I initially had interest in. I still like the 4 Horsewomen. I still like Roman. I still like Bray. I still like Ryder.
I think Asuka is currently the best when it comes to women’s wrestling. It’ll take a lot for that to change.

I love that whenever a wrestler has an opinion on something that people don't agree with, the first instinct they have is to insult them and take shots at them.

So, we’re crapping on Asuka now? Is that what we’re doing?

Her promos aren't great but she can back it in the ring. Asuka would of probably been losing to Botch Banks if she got drafted. Glad she stayed in NXT. Um Sasha doesn't botch. She can be pretty sloppy in the ring, Alexa Bliss is what Sasha Banks should of been, but she's not and that's why Alexa is thriving. Wouldn't say she's sloppy either. She makes mistakes, but she isn't sloppy. I'm confused, which is it exactly

More like a certain poster is extremely hyprocritical and changes their opinions by the day and post they get offended by. But sure, you can go with that, too...
