Update: Paige posted this on Twitter, so it looks like the match isn’t official after all…
Soooo I tried to make one last match before my time as #SDLive GM came to end…but unfortunately @BeckyLynchWWE vs. @WWEAsuka for the Smackdown Women’s Championship is NOT official for #RoyalRumble. #Oops

Original story:
Asuka vs. Becky Lynch for the SmackDown Women’s Championship was announced for the Royal Rumble, strangely on Main Event, which airs on Hulu in the US.
After recapping the Asuka, Becky and Charlotte segments from this week’s SmackDown, host Scott Stanford announced the match for the Royal Rumble. It hasn’t been announced yet on WWE.com.
Becky Lynch facing Asuka doesn’t necessarily rule her out of the Royal Rumble match. Becky winning the Rumble would obviously be a way to set up a match between her and Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania.
