RAW Women’s Champion Asuka will receive a new title belt on tonight’s WWE SmackDown on FOX.
WWE has announced a WWE Women’s Championship Presentation for tonight. Asuka is the red brand champion, but a member of the blue brand roster.
“Tonight on SmackDown, Raw Women’s Champion Asuka will have a WWE Women’s Championship Presentation. The WWE Universe will be waiting with bated breath to see how Asuka reacts and what the new design will look like. Find out tonight on SmackDown at 8/7 C on FOX!,” WWE noted in their official preview for tonight.
Asuka became RAW Women’s Champion by defeating Bianca Belair at WWE Night of Champions in late May.
