Asuka, a prominent figure in WWE's women's division, is reportedly 'semi-retired' as she returns to Japan to handle family matters. Known for her impressive accolades, including three reigns as WWE Women's Champion, Asuka's absence is particularly notable following the recent roster cuts that led to the cancellation of her storyline with Kairi Sane, who has also left WWE. Following her last appearance at Backlash and a farewell to IYO SKY on RAW, speculation about her future in wrestling has intensified. WWE veteran Nattie has voiced her concerns regarding Asuka's emotional well-being, suggesting that the star may be dealing with personal issues that have impacted her deeply. Nattie emphasized the importance of taking breaks for mental health, although it remains unclear if Asuka's situation is related to her mental health or purely personal matters. Asuka's departure leaves a significant gap in the women's division, especially with Kairi Sane also absent from the roster, and fans are left wondering about her next steps.
