That's something I hate about the nature of the beast, but that's the nature of the beast.
She will be a Women's Champion. Everyone gets to be a Women's Champion. She will be called "possibly the single-most dominant woman in WWE history" again. When that's the role they want her inserted into. Right now her job is to have good matches and lose the acts they want to win for the next few months. She was given the Rumble. She's a "history-maker." They will mention her every year for as long as it is convenient for them. She will be put into the Hall of Fame if she retires on good terms with them.
She's a part of the team. She's a cog in the machine. She knows what she signed up. They all do. They should, anyway. I just don't know how people saw even the foundations of her being presented as a monster in a roster where half the women aren't very good as possible, let alone probable. What did people think would happen when she got in the ring with Peyton Royce?

It's not being upset for Asuka, it is being upset WWE blew 3 years of booking for what? To put over the person who is already in the top spot, wrestling royalty, who gained nothing from the victory and would have lost nothing taking the loss.
That is just bad syorytelling.
