The WWE Women's Tag Team Championships will be on the line this weekend at Elimination Chamber when Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax defend against the mismatched team of Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks.
The Boss and The EST of WWE are expected to collide at WrestleMania surrounding the SmackDown Women's Championship, but at present, the two women have common enemies in Jax and Baszler.
There are several combustible elements in this match already, since Baszler and Jax have already been to NXT and picked up a feud with Raquel Gonzalez and Dakota Kai. There is also the added issue that Reginald was the man who secured the victory over Nia Jax on SmackDown, before the Tag Team Championship match was announced.
Also, Lana and Naomi could make their presence known, since they have already secured a future match for the Tag Team Championships over on RAW.
Who will walk out of Elimination Chamber with the Women's Tag Team Championships just two years after the titles were officially unveiled? Here are five potential finishes.
#5. Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax retain their WWE Women's Tag Team Championships at Elimination Chamber
Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax took advantage of Lacey Evans' involvement in their match back at the Royal Rumble, in order to win back their Women's Tag Team Championships from Charlotte Flair and Asuka.
The two women have become something of a joke on WWE TV in the past. They have been pinned by both Lana and Naomi, and Nia Jax recently became a viral trend because of her hilarious outburst on RAW.
Baszler and Jax were on all three WWE shows this past week and are continuing to follow the rules that come with being Tag Team Champions. The fact that the women have so many enemies at present could mean there is a multi-person match building for WrestleMania. This could only take place if Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler are on the same page.
Banks and Belair obviously have their own issues and, if they are unable to co-exist, the current Champions could once again take advantage and retain their Championships. As noted, there are several combustible elements in this match, but moving forward, storylines heading into this year's WrestleMania make the most sense if Jax and Baszler remain WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
#4. Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair become WWE Women's Tag Team Champions at Elimination Chamber
Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair are already on a collision course that will lead to a match at WrestleMania. The EST of WWE won the Royal Rumble last month and is yet to decide which Championship she wants to challenge for at the biggest show of the year in April.
It's likely that Belair will challenge Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's Championship. But at present the two women seem to be on the same page with a common enemy.
In the past, WrestleMania rivals have won Tag Team Championships before. Shawn Michaels and John Cena being one of the most famous examples ahead of their match at WrestleMania 23.
Given the number of enemies that the current Women's Tag Team Champions have on all three WWE brands, there could be interference in this match that would work in Banks and Belair's favor. This could gift Belair her first-ever Championship in WWE.
#3. Reginald and Carmella interfere in the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match at Elimination Chamber
Last week's episode of SmackDown included some strange booking decisions from WWE's creative team heading towards Elimination Chamber. The most obvious one saw Reginald interrupt the Women's Tag Team Champions in order to defend Sasha Banks.
The Sommelier of Carmella then went on to wrestle in a six-person tag team match, where he was able to pin Nia Jax with the help of Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks. Reginald was seen backstage with Carmella following the match and the former Champion wasn't happy, which was when she told Reginald that he had to make things right.
It's unclear what this means. Will Reginald be forced to interfere in the match at Elimination Chamber and cost Banks the chance to win back the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships? Or will Carmella and Reginald head to Sonya Deville and ask to be added to the match ahead of Elimination Chamber?
After all, Reginald has pinned Nia Jax, which means that he has at least some claim to a Championship match.
#2. Raquel Gonzalez, Dakota Kai, Naomi, or Lana could interfere in the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match at Elimination Chamber
The WWE Women's Tag Team Champions have picked up a few enemies on all three brands over the past few weeks, which opens up the match at Elimination Chamber to interference.
It could be argued that Lana and Naomi deserved this match more than Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair, since both women have been able to pin the Champions over the past few weeks.
Over on NXT, Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez won the first-ever Women's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Which gives them a Women's Tag Team Championship match in the near future.
Jax and Baszler recently appeared on NXT and confronted the two women ahead of what could be an interesting future showdown. Despite it being made clear that the match will happen, WWE officials are yet to decide on a date and location.
All four of these women have a reason to interfere in the match at Elimination Chamber. They could either cost Jax and Baszler their Championships, or ensure that the two women retain, so that they have a future match.
#1. Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax are unable to co-exist in their WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match at Elimination Chamber
Ahead of tonight's WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match, the obvious scenario would see Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks fail to co-exist. This could finally begin to set up their WrestleMania match.
But this element is too predictable for WWE. Which means that it's probably not the route the creative team will be looking to take. Instead, it's perhaps more likely that the current Women's Tag Team Champions will have an issue co-existing at Elimination Chamber.
Over the past week, Nia Jax has become a viral trend after being pinned by Lana, and was the woman who was pinned on SmackDown, in order for this match at Elimination Chamber to become official.
The Queen of Spades is better than this current angle and in the absence of Lacey Evans, she should be the one challenging Asuka for the Women's Championship. Dropping Nia Jax just weeks before WrestleMania could work perfectly for the Submission Magician and would allow her to be taken seriously on WWE TV once again.
