Following the WWE Fastlane PPV this past Sunday night, the Raw Women’s Title match at WrestleMania 35 will now feature current Champion Ronda Rousey defending her Title against Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch in a Triple Threat match.
With plans for the Raw brand’s women’s Title now set for WrestleMania, attention now turns to the Smackdown Live Women’s Champion Asuka, and who she might face at the big PPV in April.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, via ProWrestling.com, The Empress of Tomorrow is rumored to be involved in a multi-woman match at WrestleMania, as WWE is looking to add several multi-star matches to the PPV in order to book as many superstars as possible on the card.
As of this writing, it looks like Asuka could be defending her Title in a Triple Threat match at WrestleMania against both Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville, following the events which have taken place on WWE TV as of late. It’s also possible Naomi could be involved in the bout, considering the other women’s title match at the PPV is a Triple Threat.
Original plans for Asuka at the PPV called for her to face Lacey Evans, but those plans appear to have been scrapped.

In other WrestleMania news, WWE has confirmed that Randy Orton will face AJ Styles in a singles match at the PPV taking place on April 7th in New Jersey. Styles commented on the match by Tweeting, “I’ve been holding down this house way before I came to WWE. The lights may not have been as bright, the audience may not have been as big…but a ring is still a ring. And any ring I step into belongs to me.”
So who does #SDLive REALLY belong to? @AJStylesOrg will battle it out with @RandyOrton at #WrestleMania! https://t.co/I5e5mRdCR1 pic.twitter.com/aM6Xnqrxf0
