The Kabuki Warriors (カブキウォリアーズ, Kabuki Woriāzu) are a Japanese professional wrestling tag team consisting of Asuka and Kairi Sane. They are both currently signed to WWE, where they perform on the Raw brand and are members of the Damage CTRL stable. They are former two-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, with their first reign being the longest in the title's history. As part of the team, Asuka was a former one-time Raw Women's Champion and had won the women's Money in the Bank.
The team originally formed as faces in April 2019 with Paige as their manager before turning heels and kicking Paige in October of the same year. Asuka and Sane amicably split up in July 2020 when the latter left WWE to return to Japan. Sane returned in November 2023 at Crown Jewel and the two reunited as part of the Damage CTRL stable.
