It was recently reported that former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion, The Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka was severely injured and was not medically cleared to compete. She was scheduled to be part of the Queen of The Ring Tournament. But she was replaced at the last minute by her fellow Damage CTRL member Dakota Kai. The Irresistible Force Nia Jax shared a message praising the former WWE Raw Women’s Champion.

A fan took to Twitter to share their respect for The Empress of Tomorrow. The fan mentioned that Asuka’s injury was very severe and she could barely walk but still went on to wrestle at the Backlash Premium Live Event for 17 minutes.

“Could barely walk. Wrestled for 17 minutes. One of the best matches of the night. I don’t care what anyone says. She was the MVP of Backlash. #WWERAW,” a fan tweeted.

The Irresistible Force Nia Jax replied to the fan mentioning the fact that Asuka was suffering in pain but didn’t mind that. She wrestled Live events, appeared on television and also went on tour. Jax also shared that Asuka gave everything she had just so the fans could be entertained.

“Also, has been working live events and TV every single week in pain. Traveling the world with brutal flights and bus rides, and gave 1000 percent every night for the fans! @WWEAsuka is the best!!!” Nia Jax tweeted.

We at Wrestlezone wish Asuka a speedy recovery.
