This week’s SmackDown featured an incredible bout for the Women’s Tag Team Championship. The team of Candice LeRae and Nia Jax challenged Bianca Belair and her new partner Naomi for the titles. While the match was interesting as it was built as the first bout for Naomi as champion, the conclusion left fans with many unwavering questions.

The Irresistible Force showcased her dominance throughout the match, aided by the underhanded tactics of LeRae. The bout also featured ringside interference from Tiffany Stratton. However, Belair and Naomi remained unfazed by the obstacles in their way. The EST, renowned for her strength, managed to neutralize Jax, setting the stage for the former TNA star to secure the victory by pinning LeRae.

Interestingly, this marked Belair’s first Women’s Tag Team Title defense since Jade Cargill was sidelined following an attack. Last week, it was announced that The Glow would temporarily step in as Belair’s partner and co-champion in WWE. While this was a significant opportunity for Naomi, the sudden twist in her favor sparked considerable attention among fans.

Nonetheless, Jax and LeRaeā€™s opportunity at the Womenā€™s Tag Team Titles was squandered last night on SmackDown. The growing tension between Jax and Stratton has become increasingly evident, hinting at deeper cracks in their alliance. It will be fascinating to see what lies ahead for them in WWE while Belair and Naomi move forward into the new year as reigning champions.
