What's the story?

WWE recently announced that the women's tag team titles will be introduced at the Elimination Chamber PPV, where the inaugural women's tag team champions will be crowned.

Now, the WWE has announced the rules for the historic match.

In case you didn't know...

Last month, Vince McMahon said that the women's tag team titles would be announced soon, which was one of many announcements that the McMahon family made.

On the 14th January episode of RAW, Alexa Bliss, on her 'A Moment of Bliss' segment announced that the women's tag team titles would be introduced at the Elimination Chamber PPV, which will be held on February 17th, 2019.

The heart of the matter

WWE revealed more details about the match this week. 6 teams - 3 from SmackDown and 3 from RAW, will compete in the Elimination Chamber, with the last one standing crowned the first-ever women's tag team champions.

This time around, two teams will start the bout while the remaining four duos remain enclosed in pods. At specified intervals, a pod will open at random, enabling a new team to enter the match. This will continue until all six pairs have joined the bout. If one member of a team gets eliminated at any time via pinfall or submission, both members of the team are eliminated and must leave the contest. The last tag team standing will be declared the winner and the first-ever Women’s Tag Teams Champions.

What's next?

The Elimination Chamber PPV will be held at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, on February 17th. But before that, we have the Royal Rumble PPV which is under a week away and will take place on January 28th, 2019.
