Alexa’s Playground with Natalya & Tamina set for WWE Raw
An Alexa’s Playground segment is set for tonight’s post-WrestleMania Backlash edition of Raw.
On SmackDown this past Friday, Natalya & Tamina defeated Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler to become the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. Alexa Bliss will welcome Natalya & Tamina for an Alexa’s Playground segment on Raw tonight.
This is the first major title that Tamina has held in WWE. Her only other title reign was with the 24/7 Championship.
Bliss said on Raw two weeks ago that her doll Lilly told her that “a certain someone” had caught her eye. Bliss and Lilly then came out to the stage and watched on from Alexa’s Playground as Asuka, Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke faced Charlotte Flair, Jax & Baszler in a six-woman tag match on Raw last week. Bliss said she and Lilly were keeping their eyes on “someone.”
The finish of last week’s six-woman tag match saw Asuka pin Baszler after Bliss was apparently able to make Baszler’s leg cramp up and give out.
Natalya & Tamina are members of the SmackDown roster but can now appear on both brands while they’re the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.
