If you were looking for the embodiment of a WWE trope-laden time-filler, look no further than the eight-woman tag match featuring the four tag teams battling for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 38.

In this match, you have: tag partners who haven’t been getting along (Queen Zelina & Carmella); teams comprised of PLE opponents inexplicably forced together; said teammates imploding and battling each other; and a supposed pushed wrestler taking the pinfall (Zelina, one-half of the tag champs).

Throw in that this match was just a mess, with the women missing half their moves by a foot and a contrived pier six brawl that looked horrible, and you have something so skippable that you’re doing a disservice to your FF button to not exercise it.
