Becky Lynch vs Asuka has been officially confirmed for the 2020 Royal Rumble PPV. This will be for the RAW Women’s Championship. It will also be the second straight year that they will be facing off at the Rumble. Asuka defeated Becky last year to retain the Smackdown Women’s Championship.
I wanted to share my speculation about what will happen in the match. This includes the match quality and who will win.
Match Quality
I thought that Becky and Asuka’s match at the Royal Rumble last year was really solid. I think that they have a chance to build upon that and put on an even better match this time. They seem to have some solid in-ring chemistry and they are both really talented. I am going to predict that their match is better than last year and even ends up on the highest-rated Women’s matches in WWE history list.
Who Will Win?
As for the winner, I am definitely going with Becky Lynch for a few reasons. The first reason for Becky winning is that it would even the series between her and Asuka at one win apiece. That would save a rematch between them for down the road that WWE can build towards. Becky vs Asuka III is a big match that I see WWE booking for a future PPV.
The other reason is that I see Becky walking into Wrestlemania 36 with the RAW Women’s Championship. There are several big match possibilities for the RAW Women’s Title at the event. Most of them involve Becky, so I don’t see her losing the belt prior to it.
In summary, I have Becky winning in a really good match. Becky vs Asuka will happen again down the road at a future PPV.
