7 Tag Teams That Could Become The Inaugural WWE Women's Tag Team Champions

rumoured
Women's Tag Team Championships may look like this

Well, if all rumours are to be believed, it looks like it may finally be happening.

WWE have kept hush on the situation, by which I mean their Superstars have constantly teased the idea but no official announcement has been made, but it looks like Women's Tag Team Championships could be announced at any time in WWE, with several outlets reporting that the actual belts are finished, but WWE are waiting for the optimum time to implement the idea.

WWE has a stacked Women's Division right now and only two gold-laden straps to go round, leaving very little in the way of prizes to fight for, and if you scrape beyond the surface, several "tag teams" already exist within WWE that could, in their own right, stake their claim to be the first ever Women's Tag team Champions.

With so many women waiting to make their mark on the division, and a division that has never been deeper, nor more talented - the new titles look like a logical step, and could definitely be the next step for the division after WWE Evolution.

When will it happen? Who knows, but with WWE, it could be any time, and they have the talent to step up and fight for the gold immediately, so let's have a look at the seven teams most likely to compete for the titles!

#7 Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose

Son
Deville and Rose would be strong contenders

Well, Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose certainly know how to make an impact. When they debuted, accompanied by Paige as part of Absolution, they laid out stars such as Sasha Banks, Bayley, Mickie James, and Alexa Bliss in their main roster infancy before going on an impressive run where they looked to be one of WWE's most dominant factions.

Sadly, when Paige was shelved due to injury prior to her retirement, the pair's momentum cooled slightly - but the pair have since moved from Raw to SmackDown and, while both compete separately as singles competitors, maintain a strong bond both on-screen and off.

If Tag Team Championships are introduced, you can bet these two would be strong contenders!

#6 Sarah Logan and Liv Morgan

The R
The
Riott
Squad could hit the top

Much like Absolution, The Riott Squad made a dominant start to their main roster WWE careers, paralleling their Raw counterparts on SmackDown when they assaulted the SmackDown women's roster beginning with Naomi and Becky Lynch backstage, before later interrupting a SmackDown Women's title match between the champion Charlotte Flair and the challenger Natalya - attacking both competitors.

The leader of the faction, Ruby Riott, has had the most main roster success, pinning Charlotte Flair and having a very impressive run in a Gauntlet Match on Raw, but was recently shelved with an injury. The trio are now on Raw and Riott recently returned to help her teammates this week and establish their dominance yet again.

While Ruby Riott shows the most promise here, Riott could easily be slotted into the Women's Champion role and, well, holding all the gold would make The Riott Squad a very formidable force indeed.

Of course, The Riott Squad could always use the Freebird Rule...

#5 Natalya and Ronda Rousey

Rousey
Rousey has found a friend in Natalya, the woman who had a hand in training her

Now, this would be a shock - but the pair have formed a very close bond and this could be the perfect way to ease Rousey into her WWE career and not have her carry the main gold - as well as keeping her special and not having the former UFC star constantly work singles matches or get physical in the ring.

Natalya had a hand in training Rousey - so there's a back story there that WWE could continue to capitalise on, and with Rousey looking out for her mentor in recent weeks, this choice is quite logical.

Rousey has excited the WWE Universe to no end, as well as impressing in the ring, and Natalya may be one of WWE's most underutilized talents and one of the most technically sound women on the roster, so this could be great.

#4 The IIconics

Billie Kay and
Billie Kay and
Peytom
Rpyce
have taken the blue brand by storm

Well, The IIconics - Peyton Royce and Billie Kay - have been one of the greatest heel heel throwback teams we've saw on the main roster since arriving in WWE.

The pair honed their craft in NXT and, after a plethora of calls from the WWE Universe to bring them to the main roster, they made a huge impact on SmackDown Live on their debut,

With the pair cutting one an immense team promo upon their arrival, they went on to essentially cost Charlotte Flair the SmackDown Women's Championship just days after she ended Asuka's undefeated streak to retain her gold.

The IIconics have well and truly settled into their roles on SmackDown Live and continue to be a formidable team whose in-ring work is impressive, but their promos even more so.

The IIconics were almost made for the gold.

#3 The Bella Twins

The Bella Twins could return to win the gold

Well, from one end of the spectrum to the other - the new IIconics to a pair who are definitely veterans and icons when it comes to the WWE Women's Division.

This one may be seen as cheating as they're not officially on the WWE roster, but with their return at the Royal Rumble seeing Nikki and Brie reach the final three of the inaugural match, the Bellas are well and truly still a force in the squared circle if and when they come back.

The Bellas vs the IIconics could actually be a great rivalry if WWE went down that route, but no matter who they're against, a little bit of Twin Magic could definitely see two of WWE's biggest stars outside the squared circle transition back into the ring and sit atop the WWE mountain once more.

#2 Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair

It could
It could be tea for two to toast a team triumph for Flair and Lynch

Well, they're two of the most formidable talents when it comes to singles action in WWE, and you probably won't find two more dominant and on-form Superstars in WWE right now. Both women are currently vying for singles gold and will come face to face at SummerSlam, but these two still always find their way back to each other.

Both firm fan favourites, Lynch and Charlotte could undoubtedly be one of the most exciting teams in WWE if they can stay on the same page.

Both former Women's Champions in their own right, and two of the greatest women in WWE today, this pair could be unstoppable.

#1 Sasha Banks and Bayley

The mo
The most likely choice

So, we go from two of WWE's Four Horsewomen to the other two members, and definitely the most logical and likely choice...

WWE have spent the best part of the past year building what seemed like being the ultimate rivalry between Bayley and Sasha, which ultimately culminated in the pair forgiving, forgetting and resolving all their issues.

In what seems like a massive U-turn coming at a time when the WWE Women's Championships are rumoured, Banks and Bayley being paired up angles the team as a stick-on for the inaugural Women's Tag Team Champions whenever the titles are announced, if at all.

And, well, what better way to completely consolidate the pair as the top team in WWE than to give these former Women's Champions the gold and have them make history as the first ever Women's Tag Team Champions?
