The first team ready to step up and challenge the new champions was the duo of Nia Jax and Tamina. The challengers didn’t get very far as Banks and Bayley kicked them back up the ramp before they could even enter the ring. You can view the full segment in the video above.
Banks & Bayley defeated Nia Jax & Tamina, The IIconics, Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville, Carmella & Naomi, and Sarah Logan & Liv Morgan in the Women’s Tag Team Elimination Chamber bout on Sunday to become the new Women’s Tag Team Champions.
