Naomi & Lana to challenge for WWE Women’s Tag Team titles
Naomi & Lana are the new number one contenders to the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles.
Naomi & Lana defeated Charlotte Flair & Raw Women’s Champion Asuka and Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke in a triple threat match on Raw tonight to become the number one contenders to Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler’s Women’s Tag Team titles. When Naomi & Lana will be getting their title shot hasn’t been announced.
Charlotte tagged out near the end of the number one contender’s match and walked out of the match as Ric Flair and Lacey Evans were coming out to the ring. Asuka then turned around into a Rear View from Naomi. Naomi pinned Asuka to get the win.
Charlotte & Asuka lost the Raw Tag Team titles to Jax & Baszler on Sunday’s Royal Rumble pre-show due to interference by Ric Flair and Evans. Ric gave Evans brass knuckles, then Evans used them to lay Charlotte out with the Woman’s Right.
Naomi and Lana both made their returns as entrants in the women’s Royal Rumble. Lana eliminated her rival Jax in the match.
