Hold onto your seats, wrestling fans, because the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships just got a whole lot more intense! On Friday Night SmackDown, Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY proved once again why they’re the champions to beat, defending their titles in a match that had everyone on the edge of their seats. But here’s where it gets even more thrilling: their challengers, Kiana James and Giulia, weren’t just any opponents—they were the freshly crowned number one contenders after a jaw-dropping triple threat match. And this is the part most people miss: this was Rhiyo’s second title defense in quick succession, following their victory against The Judgment Day’s Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez at last month’s Saturday Night’s Main Event. Talk about a packed schedule!
The match itself was a masterclass in tag team wrestling. Kiana and Giulia brought their A-game, showcasing solid teamwork and determination, but it wasn’t enough to dethrone the champions. The heels dominated for much of the bout, but Rhea and IYO’s seamless chemistry ultimately sealed the deal, with a stunning Riptide and Over-the-Moonsault combo securing their win.
Now, here’s the controversial part: Is the WWE Women’s Tag Team division becoming too predictable, or are Rhea and IYO simply that unstoppable? Some fans argue that their dominance might be overshadowing other talented teams, while others believe they’re elevating the division to new heights. What do you think? Are Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY the champions the division needs, or is it time for a fresh face to take the spotlight? Let’s spark some debate in the comments!
