Taya Valkyrie Believes Women’s Tag Team Wrestling Needs More Attention On The Indies

Taya Valkyrie want to see women’s tag team wrestling grow. 

Valkyrie is one-half of the IMPACT Knockouts Tag Team Champions alongside Jessicka as the Death Dollz. IMPACT has regularly highlighted the women’s tag team division through the Knockouts Tag Team Championship, and Valkyrie would like that to extend to the Independent scene. 

“I’m just thrilled that IMPACT is building a strong female, women’s Knockouts tag team division,” she said on Retro Chat Podcast. “I feel there needs to be more attention to that on the Indies. I definitely don’t see really established tag teams or as much tag teams as the guys. If we allow those women opportunities, if we allow more women’s tag team matches to happen, I feel that will continue to grow. You look at established women like The Hex (Allysin Kay & Marti Belle), some of the tag teams in the NWA that have been doing work there and stuff like that. We need to keep pushing, it’s obviously working, people are invested, and I’m excited to be representing women’s Knockouts tag team gold.”

Though The Death Dollz are the Knockouts Tag Team Champions, they are currently without a match for IMPACT Hard To Kill.
