Report: Kairi Sane Missed WWE Television Tapings Due To Being In Japan Following Her Marriage

While Asuka has been on both Raw and SmackDown in recent weeks, Kairi Sane has been noticeably absent from television.

According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Sane has been in Japan following her marriage to her partner in February. Meltzer reports that WWE officials understood that Sane would not make it for the television tapings, but she did return in time to film her match for WrestleMania 36.

WWE confirmed on Monday that Sane & Asuka will defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles against Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross at WrestleMania 36.

Sane last competed on television on March 9 when she & Asuka teamed to defeated Liv Morgan & Natalya.
