Bianca Belair's reign is over.
Asuka is the new WWE Raw Women's Champion, defeating Bianca Belair at WWE Night of Champions.
While Bianca was ready for the mist of Asuka, ducking her initial attempt, she was not ready for Asuka's backup plan. Asuka misted her her own fingers, digging them into Belair's eyes as Belair went for the KOD to blind the champion. Asuka would hit multiple kicks to the head to pin Belair and capture the title.
