Big Bad Blog Video Theater-Asuka vs James Ellsworth

Here's the match video of Asuka vs James Ellsworth from last night's episode of Smackdown. As you have probably heard, it wasn't much of a match because there will be a rematch next week. Ellsworth did his usual shtick which included among other things sexist comments and stalling. Asuka's only mistake was getting impatient and chasing Ellsworth around the arena resulting in a double count out. We got a taste of Asuka beating up Ellsworth. Her airplane spin was comedy gold. Carmella was at ringside mostly yelling at Ellsworth. She did ram Asuka into the ringside barrier after the match was over. Then Smackdown GM Paige told Ellsworth he can't run from Asuka anymore because next week's rematch will be a Lumberjill match. The Smackdown women's locker room will surround the ring. Not all of those women are friendly to Asuka so I do expect more shenanigans. But I also expect Asuka to clobber Ellsworth. And there isn't a stipulation yet for Carmella vs Asuka at Extreme Rules. How about Ellsworth suspended in a cage? Check out the video and I'll see you here for next week's rematch.
