Ladies’s Tag Staff Championship — Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah def. Dakota Kai & IYO SKY by way of pinfall to win the titles. Different ladies’s tag groups have been across the screens backstage watching the match. Bayley made the save for her group, pulling SKY from Rodriguez’s clutches and organising a near-win when SKY hit a moonsault. Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss and Asuka ran to ringside to chase Bayley off. As Kai and SKY watched the chaos, Aliyah made a blind tag. SKY hit a crucifix driver on Rodriguez and rolled out of the ring attempting to permit Kai to get the pin, however Aliyah snuck in to attain the roll-up and seize the titles.
Rodriguez and Aliyah aren’t probably the most thrilling tag group within the ladies’s division, but it surely makes extra sense to place the belts on them than Kai and SKY. Bayley’s group has an enormous storyline in place with their beef with Belair, Asuka and Bliss so spreading the belts elsewhere retains extra tales flowing moderately than bogging the titles down as a minor half of a bigger feud. Ought to Sasha Banks and Naomi return quickly, it offers them a group that’s freed up for a title program. Grade: B

We’re quick approaching a degree the place Rey and Dominik must be faraway from any storyline with Judgement Day.
