What if Paige brings the Sky Pirates to the main roster?

#1 This is why the Boss ‘n’ Hug Connnection lost

It was surprising when Sasha Banks and Bayley lost their titles at WrestleMania, but maybe it was to pave the way for The Sky Pirates

Many WWE fans were surprised that Bayley and Sasha Banks dropped the Women’s Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania. After all, they’re a good team, composed of talents who otherwise feel under utilized. Moreover, they’ve been portrayed as friends since before the women’s tag division launched, and thus had an identity as a team.

While the IIconics have been linked throughout their NXT and main roster runs and good on the mic, their in ring skills lag behind, and feel like they’re already bringing the caliber of the women’s tag division down a step.

One possibility for why WWE booked the IIconics to take the titles was to use them as transitional champions. If the Sky Pirates do show up as immediate title contenders, or even champions, it will help for them to go over a heel team in the process.

While they may work the Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection down the road, it would probably be better for their trajectory in terms of getting over with fans to start with this clearer cut face push.
