Scary news from White Plains, New York. A house show match between WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Asuka and Mandy Rose was stopped after the champ was injured. She got slammed on her head and the match was stopped. Medical staff came out to help Asuka.
Asuka got dumped on the side of her head and we got trainers out. Looked real nasty. #WWEWhitePlains pic.twitter.com/oTtm0TJ9BJ
