Women’s Tag Team title match set for first WWE Raw of 2026

A match for the Women’s Tag Team titles is set for the first Raw of the new year.

On Monday, it was confirmed that the Kabuki Warriors would be defending the titles against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY. The two teams have been feuding for the last few months after Asuka and Kairi Sane turned their backs on former friend SKY.

An angle took place on Raw further continuing the tensions. As Ripley and SKY made their way to the ring, they were ambushed by Asuka, who misted Ripley through the crowd. Sane then took out SKY as the Kabuki Warriors looked to take out Ripley with Sane’s Insane Elbow. Right as Sane launched off, SKY covered Ripley, taking the hit for her friend.

The two teams previously battled at Crown Jewel back in October, with Sky and Ripley picking up the win in Ripley’s home country of Australia.
