Lana Pulled From WWE TLC 2020
Asuka will have a new partner on Sunday...
Dec 15, 2020
The long-running feud between Lana and Nia Jax continued on last night's episode of Raw and The Ravishing Russian managed to secure a shocking victory over her rival.
Lana's happiness quickly disappeared, though, as Shayna Baszler took out Asuka backstage, leaving Bobby Lashley's ex-wife easy prey for the Women's Tag Team Champions. The Queen Of Spades then proceeded to twist Lana's ankle and Jax added to the onslaught with three Leg Drops to her calf.
Asuka eventually managed to make the save, but WWE later confirmed The Ravishing Russian had suffered injuries to her elbow and leg and would be unable to compete at TLC on Sunday.
Asuka and a partner of her choosing will now challenge Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax for the Women's Tag Team Title at the pay-per-view.
