Since her arrival at NXT last fall, Asuka has dominated the competition. Everyone, from the tall Nia Jax to the spirited Bayley has lost to the Empress. Although Superstars like Liv Morgan have attempted to stand up to the undefeated Asuka in recent weeks, all of them have failed to take her down.
James, 37, is a 17-year veteran of the mat game, a five-time WWE Women’s Champion and a former Divas Champion. She has beaten some of the biggest female names in WWE history, including Beth Phoenix and WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus.
Will Asuka succeed the toughest test of her WWE career, or will Mickie James be the one to hand The Empress of Tomorrow her first defeat? Find out at NXT TakeOver: Toronto, live and exclusively on WWE Network, Saturday, Nov. 19, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT!
