AJ Styles, who retired from WWE in January, has seemingly confirmed that Asuka may also be leaving the company after her emotional loss to Iyo Sky at Backlash. Following the match, Asuka was seen in tears, embracing her former friend, which fueled speculation about her retirement. Styles posted on Instagram, stating, "I don’t know the facts, but I know @wwe_asuka will be a Hall of Famer," alongside a photo of himself with Asuka and Kairi Sane. The wrestling community has rallied to express their gratitude for Asuka's contributions, highlighting her role as a cornerstone of the women's division for over a decade. Despite the outpouring of support, WWE has not yet made an official statement regarding her status, leaving fans and fellow wrestlers in uncertainty. Asuka is celebrated as one of the top female wrestlers in WWE history, and many believe she deserves a proper farewell if this indeed marks her final match.
