12 Ups & 12 Downs For WWE In 2019
6. The Rise And Immediate Fall Of The Women's Tag Team Championships
When Sasha Banks and Bayley became Women's Tag Team Champions in February, they promised to build the prestige of the new belts my taking them anywhere a challenge was available. With three thriving women's divisions, the possibilities appeared endless and two immensely talented performers had finally found their place.
As of writing, the belts still haven't been made special four changes later.
A WrestleMania loss to The IIconics was delivered for shock at the expense of the belts' entire summer. Comedy characters, the Aussie pair weren't booked to defend them because they clearly couldn't, and a token reign for Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross hadn't yet done the heavy lifting before The Kabuki Warriors finally took some ownership.
Things have looked up ever since, but they'll remain token gestures should WWE treat them as such again.
