Asuka was never particularly dominant in her matches unless she was going up against total jobbers (which I guess you could argue Emma was at the time, but Emma's also really good, so whatever). She spent plenty of time wrestling from under in NXT, it's just that she was literally impossible to keep down.

I did prefer Asuka finding ways to more exponentially quickly squash Dana, though.

I'm actually pretty excited for what Roman and Joe do next, those two have some pretty solid chemistry and I loved that period when the main event scene was just Joe Braun and Roman while Brock was on vacation.

Dave on the Brock/Reigns/title situation: At most 5 to 10 people knew about the Mania ending Reigns found out he was losing when he got in the building day of; original ending was basically the same spot (Reigns goes off the ropes for a final spear but gets picked up and F5'd), only he'd have countered the F5 and gotten the final spear for the win Brock throwing the belt backstage was to work talent and crew (Dave hated this, outright saying it's from the late-WCW playbook) Creative and Reigns both had the mindset there was nothing they could have done to get him cheered at Mania; Saudi Arabia may be his best bet at winning the belt and getting cheered, or at least booed much less

If you have to fly across the globe to get your top guy cheered maybe he shouldn't be your top guy. Hell, at this point why does it even matter what his reaction is if they're that dead set on making him the guy?

Dave also said they're considering possibly switching to having Braun take it off Brock instead, but that Roman is still frontrunner by a lot.

Taker dumptrucking Y2J is probably a better outcome than Rusev getting buried until, yeah, he's already buried anyway

If they wanted it to look like a double cross why wouldn't they have Brock choke Roman out or put a kimura on him until he "passes out." That way people might go "DID HE JUST SHOOT ON HIM?" instead of whatever the hell this is. I say passes out because Vince would never just have Roman tap out.
