Lana is Now a Babyface?

Lana won the women’s battle royal on last week’s edition of WWE RAW and will be getting a RAW women’s title match against Asuka. Dave Meltzer noted that the booking of Lana on RAW was designed to turn her babyface to balance out the number of heels and faces. Meltzer wrote the following about the matter:

“The company belief is that this show turned Lana babyface because she was put through a table four times and came back to win the Battle Royal. The term massive babyface was even used.”

Lana cut a promo on social media to hype up the match with Asuka. During the promo, Lana broke down after saying that she was been laughed at and underestimated:
