Those Women's Tag-Team belts are skirting worryingly close to 24/7 Title territory these days. Nobody cares about them, including WWE's writers, and that's blatantly obvious whenever they're tasked with drumming up scenarios for the championships on TV.

Being honest, Queen Zelina didn't even need this run alongside Carmella after winning the first Queen's Crown tourney. That should've been a step towards solo success for Vega, but it wasn't to be. It also doesn't help that most of the duos in this division (like the champs themselves) are shunted together suddenly without any context.

It's all so careless.

The four-way match at 'Mania only exists to get as many bodies a payday as possible. It's the easy way to stick stars like Sasha Banks, Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan on the show when they've got nothing else worthwhile going on, and it's all so....bland.
