People can’t resist the temptation of touching things you are not supposed to touch! ✋ https://t.co/LjOPBsnHK1

Here's the match video of Asuka and The Miz vs Charlotte Flair and Bobby Roode. This was the final of the Mixed Match Challenge. The winning team wins $100K for their charity. Last night this match could only be seen on Facebook Watch which is only available in the US. So I'm sure many international fans haven't seen it. So when the WWE pulled Charlotte from last week's match, I thought that they should keep her out of this match she and Asuka shouldn't touch each other until Wrestlemania. That's exactly what they are doing with Styles vs Nakamura and Alexa vs Nia. So why did they decide to have them go against each other five days before Wrestlemania? Based on the above Tweet which Asuka sent yesterday, she didn't like it either. And she's a whole lot smarter than me. As much as the WWE tries to present Charlotte as a great wrestler, she still acts like a greenhorn. She's very nervous mostly about screwing up during a match. And those jitters usually lead to her screwing up during a match. She has athletic ability but she lacks confidence. Of course what they tried to sell on commentary is giving fans a taste of what to expect from them this Sunday. I still would have kept them apart. The match itself started out with stalling but it was probably the most serious match in the tournament. The Miz and Roode carried most of the load because they didn't want to overdo Asuka vs Charlotte. And you'll notice Asuka was on the floor for a lot of the match. The end came after Charlotte applied her figure eight on The Miz. After Asuka broke that up, Roode was about to finish The Miz with his DDT when Asuka kicked him in the back of the head and The Miz finished him. Asuka and The Miz win the Mixed Match Challenge and earn $100K for Rescue Dogs Rock. The match was fine but having Asuka and Charlotte face each other five days before Wrestlemania was completely unnecessary. Enjoy the video!
