Asuka vs. Kayden Carter: Asuka just toys with Carter to start, dancing around and not taking her seriously at all. Asuka provides her own commentary as Carter starts to fight back, they trade, shoulder tackle by Asuka and Carter slowly fires back and cradles her for 2. The springboard arm drag connects but Asuka quickly cuts her off with kicks and then dances before slamming Carter to the barricades. Back in as Asuka keeps control, laying the boots to Carter and then choking her out. Asuka grounds things and talks some more shit. Carter fights to her feet and follow with chops, strikes and a dropkick. Asuka cuts her off and the head kick and Asuka lock finishes it. Asuka defeated Kayden Carter @ 5:05 via submission [**½] This was a perfectly solid match, but wildly entertaining thanks to Asuka’s playful shenanigans.
