NXT Women’s champion Asuka hasn’t been pinned or submitted since joining WWE in 2015, and with the company drawing attention to the number of wins she’s racked up over that time - and even making comparisons to Goldberg’s legendary WCW streak - we’ve decided to follow along.
On Thursday night (May 4) in Phoenix, the Empress of Tomorrow successfully defended her title against Sonya Deville, in a match that featured kicking:

And it puts Asuka’s streak at...
170!
3 more to tie - and 4 to break - Bill G’s WWE-acknowledged 1997 - 1998 streak.
She’s staying on the west coast for shows in California tonight and tomorrow night, and then things get REALLY interesting...
Stay tuned.
