WWE announced that Asuka has a broken right collar♚bone, suffered during her match♐ with Ember Moon at NXT Takeover Brooklyn III.
NXT Women’s Champion Asuka broke her right collarbone during her successful ♏title defense against Ember Moon Saturday at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III, WWE.com has learned.
Due to the injury, T🍸he Empress of Tomorrow is not medically cleared to compet🅷e, and no official timetable has been given for her return. The typical recovery time for a broken collarbone is 6-8 weeks, according to ringside physician Dr. Jeffrey Westerfield, who tended to Asuka in Brooklyn.
“During the match, she landed awkwardly from a throw from Ember Moon and was able to complete the match, but had notable pain and discomfort,” Dr. Westerfield said. “We performed an initial ultrasound backsta🃏♋ge that was highly suspicious of a break that was later confirmed by an X-ray.”
News of the injury comes as Asuka approaches the 507-day mark of her historic NX✨T Women’s Title reign. She 🦩has yet to be defeated in NXT since debuting in October 2015.
Asuka sent out this Tweet,ಌ comparing herself to an unstoppable machine (because she 🦋kinda is one).
