Nobody is ready for Asuka.
WWE RAWs June 16 episode went down in the Resch Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Queen of the Ring tournament also included another great match.
During this weeks episode of WWE RAW, another tournament match went down in the 2025 Queen of the Ring tournament. Asuka vs. Ivy Nile vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Stephanie Vaquer was the match on this weeks card.
This match kicked off WWE RAW as the first match of the night. Asuka was the final competitor announced in the match, and fans were more than happy to welcome her out. Asukas most recent WWE match was at Backlash 2024 on April 5, 2024. She and Kairi Sane lost the WWE Womens Tag Team Titles to Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill at the premium live event. A knee injury kept her out of action for over a year after that.
This match stretched through a commercial break after they got started. When we came back, Stephanie Vaquer tried a Devils Kiss, but Raquel Rodriguez stopped her, and she put Vaquer on her shoulders. Soon, the two toppled over the top rope, so Stephanie could nail the Devils Kiss on the apron.
Ivy Nile and Asuka squared off against each other next. Asuka kicked out of everything Ivy threw at her, and then they cut to another commercial break. When we got back, Asuka took out her opponents with a top rope dropkick as Raquel had Ivy and Vaquer on her shoulders.
Rhea Ripley showed up to pull Raquel Rodriguez off a pinfall and she nailed her with a Rip Tide at ringside. Then she sent Raquel back into the ring so Asuka could finish her off with an Empress Impact and a pinfall. Now Asuka will go onto the semifinals to face Alexa Bliss.
