Women’s Tag Team titles change hands on WWE Raw
Rhea Ripley & Nikki A.S.H. are the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.
Ripley & Nikki A.S.H. won the Women’s Tag Team titles by defeating Natalya & Tamina on tonight’s episode of Raw. Natalya went to put the Sharpshooter on Nikki A.S.H. during the match, but she was distracted by Ripley laying out Tamina by hitting Riptide on the outside. Nikki A.S.H. then rolled up Natalya to win the titles.
Tamina had tried to take out Ripley before being laid out.
Prior to tonight’s Women’s Tag Team title match, Ripley and Nikki A.S.H. spoke about Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month and dedicated their match to everyone who has been affected by pediatric cancer and everyone who has supported WWE’s Connor’s Cure foundation.
On Raw two weeks ago, Ripley & Nikki A.S.H. defeated Natalya & Tamina in a non-title contender’s match. Last week’s Raw featured singles matches where Nikki A.S.H. defeated Tamina and Ripley defeated Natalya.
Ripley and Nikki A.S.H. are both former Raw Women’s Champions. In a triple threat match that also included Ripley, Nikki A.S.H. lost the Raw Women’s Championship to Charlotte Flair at SummerSlam last month.
Natalya & Tamina had been Women’s Tag Team Champions since winning the titles from Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler this May.
