Nothing lasts forever and unfortunately for a majority of WWE tag teams, that includes them as well. Of course, sometimes change is a good thing, especially if one of the members has a chance to do something bigger, but as a fan, it's always hard to say goodbye to your favorite pairing.

With that being said and WWE hinting at splitting up some of their most popular duos, here are five pairings that seem to be on the chopping block. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to tell us what teams you think aren't going to be a thing for much longer.


#5 The Miz and John Morrison

Are The Miz and John Morrison on the splits?

While it definitely might not seem that way, especially since the duo only teamed up a short time ago, the announcement of a 2 on 1 handicap match for The WWE Universal Title seems to show otherwise. In fact, if Miz or Morrison end up costing the other a shot at the title during the upcoming pay per view, it could truly be the beginning of the end.

Think about it! The former WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champions might be best friends and one of the best tag team on the entire roster, but all of that could go out the window with the introduction of The Universal Title. Beyond that, the fans have been clamoring to see Morrison in the title picture ever since he came back to WWE, which only makes this situation all the more interesting.

In the end, there are a lot of different scenarios at play here, including a few where Strowman doesn't walk out as Universal Champion. Now, as crazy as those scenarios might sound, it would be a great way to create a sizable rift between the two, put the belt on Morrison to appease fans and create a personal rivalry for the near future.

#4 Bobby Lashley and Lana

The WWE Universe can probably see this breakup happening from a mile away, especially after MVP took over as Bobby Lashley's official representative, but should still be satisfying to watch fizzle out. Maybe the company will even go back to some of their Jerry Springer show type tactics they employed last year and create some more mature content for fans.

Of course a lot of fans probably want to see this relationship just be over, but doing so would rob them of a well deserved emotional payoff. For example, what if WWE kept building this anger between Lana, MVP and Lashley, which leads to her ruining his opportunity at The WWE Title?

If nothing else, it would be a great way to protect Lashley from a loss, creates the catalyst for the long awaited breakup and keeps the title on McIntyre for the time being. WWE could even create a rematch at the next pay per view and finally christen Lashley as their new top guy if they really wanted to.

#3 The Kabuki Warriors

The Kabuki Warriors had a lengthy run with The WWE Women's Tag Team Titles last year and while they were finally defeated by Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross, the loss didn't really hurt the pair all that much. In fact, between Asuka going on to win The WWE Raw Women's Championship at Money in The Bank and the team turning babyface on the red brand, there is a lot of attention being devoted to them.

With that being said and Asuka now The Raw Women's Champion, it seems like that will be the catalyst for the teams eventual breakup. Interestingly enough, Sane was seen eyeballing the belt behind Asuka's back during celebrations and WWE is already starting to have The Pirate Princess be The Empress's lackey.

If nothing else, that's a very interesting dynamic to create between the two and could be indicative of them breaking up in the near future. Of course it might not happen right away, especially with The IIconics going through a similar type storyline right now, but it's not going to be too far off either.

#2 The IIconics

How much longer will Billie Kay and Peyton Royce's friendship last?

The Iliconics made their triumphant return to WWE a few weeks ago and while they started off with a huge victory over The WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, the comeback was derailed after the best friends came to blows. In fact, Billie Kay open palm slapped Peyton Royce after a heated discussion backstage and it took everyone by surprise.

Not only was this due to them not being back on television for very long, but also due to not many options being available for the pair. With that being said however, the company seems to want to test their friendship during this Women's tag team title feud with Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross, which could lead to the split happening at Backlash.

In the end, hopefully the split leads to better things for both Superstars or some kind of long winded reconciliation process to get the duo back on track. Either way, WWE planned this break up for a reason and they could even have something interesting planned that will come out of all this.

#1 Sasha Banks and Bayley

Are Bayley and Sasha Banks on the same page anymore?

Sasha Banks and Bayley have been running with this best friend heel gimmick for some time now and while it has been interesting to watch unfold, one has to wonder when this duo will finally split. A lot of people though it would be at WrestleMania 36, when Banks was forced to compete against Bayley in a six pack challenge for the WWE Women's SmackDown Championship, but they ended up working together to help Bayley retain.

With that being said and the storyline pretty much running its course, it might be time for WWE to finally look for a way to break these two up. Furthermore, they need to consider having Bayley be the one to betray her best friend, which would allow for Banks to be a babyface again.

In the end, Banks is so much better as a babyface and is someone fans can get behind. Beyond that, the implosion of her and Bayley's on screen friendship would be must watch television through these summer months of the year and could serve as one of the most intriguing payoffs in WWE.
