History will be made at Fastlane this year as the Women's Tag Team Championships are defended for the first time and unsurprisingly, Bayley and Sasha Banks are up against the two women that many members of the WWE Universe thought would become Champions at Elimination Chamber.
It's only a few weeks since the titles were officially unveiled and Banks and Bayley were able to overcome the odds having started inside the Elimination Chamber to then win and become the first ever Champions.
Tamina has been on quite a run of her own in recent weeks and given the fact that she defeated Sasha Banks this past week on Raw, this means that there is now a slim chance that Tamina and Nia Jax could walk out of Fastlane with their first Championships as a team.
#5. Sasha Banks and Bayley retain their Championships
Sasha Banks and Bayley only won the Championships for the first time three weeks ago, so it's possible that WWE may be thinking about giving the titles a decent run for the first few months and replaying this match once again at WrestleMania. If this is the case then allowing Banks and Bayley to retain would be the right route to take, as long as Tamina is the star who takes the pin.
Tamina has been seen as the weak link in the team for some time, which is why she took the loss at Elimination Chamber rather than Nia Jax. Interestingly, it was Tamina who was able to defeat Sasha Banks and build some momentum heading into their match this weekend after Jax's loss last week. It's an interesting situation that has a number of potential outcomes that all seem to favor Banks and Bayley.
#4. Bayley turns on Sasha Banks
It wouldn't be the first time that Sasha Banks and Bayley have been unable to see eye to eye. Banks' injury heading into Elimination Chamber forced Bayley to get through all of the qualifying matches on her own before she was the one who was able to defeat Nia Jax two weeks ago on Raw.
Banks hasn't been on the same level since her injury and whilst she pulled it out inside the Chamber and helped Bayley to win the Championships, she was the one who lost to Tamina on Monday night.
Bayley hasn't been a heel on the main roster so it will be interesting to see if the company are able to turn her into a character against Sasha Banks once again or if this has all been a huge tease that shows that the two women have each other's back no matter what.
#3. Tamina and Nia Jax become Women's Tag Team Champions
Nia Jax is still riding high off the fact that she was the woman who cost Becky Lynch her match with Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series and then started what has now become a WrestleMania main event match.
Whilst Jax herself won't be near the match, she has been given quite the boost from what was a botched punch back in October and has been pushed into the Women's Tag Team Championship picture alongside her Samoan ally Tamina Snuka.
Tamina has been in the background throughout as Jax has picked through their opponents and finally the former Women's Champion could be set to lift gold on the main roster for the first time in almost a year if she's able to overcome the odds of Banks and Bayley on Sunday night.
#2. Nia Jax and Tamina implode
It's been a back and forth few months for Tamina and Nia Jax; the two women formed ahead of the Women's Tag Team Championship unveil and have had their hearts set on winning the titles ever since. Tamina was the woman who took the pin at Elimination Chamber, but this was after Jax made the mistake of running straight into a pod and knocking herself out.
It was then Nia Jax who was pinned a few weeks ago on Raw, whilst Tamina was the one who was able to pick up the win for the two women over Sasha Banks this week. Tamina has been overlooked throughout their rise as she's often hidden in the background and if the two women fail to lift the titles this weekend then it's entirely feasible that Tamina could decide to go it alone.
#1. The IIconics interfere to make their presence known
When Sasha Banks and Bayley became Women's Tag Team Champions they claimed that they would open the title up to contenders from all brands. The two women have since been seen on both Raw and NXT but they are yet to make the trip over to SmackDown Live and that could be because of one team in particular.
The IIconics were the women that perhaps deserved to win those titles more than anyone else in the match as one of the only teams who had been together throughout their entire WWE career. They have since been denied their chance to challenge Banks and Bayley for the titles so the best way to set up a potential match with them at WrestleMania would be to interfere in their match at Fastlane and make quite the statement.
