The Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE wants Lita and Becky Lynch to pull double duty over WrestleMania 39 weekend next month.

Both women are locked into a six-woman tag-team match alongside Trish Stratus vs. Damage CTRL for one of the nights, but Dave Meltzer claims the company will have Lita and Becky defend their Women's Tag-Teams belts either 24 hours before or after that.

Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler are currently pencilled in to challenge for the straps. This is fully-dependent on Ronda getting 100% healthy before 'Mania though - she's been struggling through some pesky injuries lately, but WWE has still presented her and Shayna as a unit on episodes of SmackDown.

Could Lita and Lynch be set for a short run as Women's Tag Champs after all? It did look like Rousey and Baszler would dominate the division when they joined forces late last year.

Ronda is reportedly dealing with a hairline fracture in one of her arms, so WWE won't want to aggravate that before 'Mania weekend. Don't expect Rousey to do much (if any) wrestling between now and April's supershow(s).
