Below are some top WWE & AEW news stories of the day:
– According to insider source BWE, there have been discussions about unifying the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship and the NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship.
Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler are the current WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, while Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn are the current NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions.
Alba & Isla were drafted to SmackDown while still being champions.
WWE doesn’t have enough women’s tag teams, so WWE will most likely have the unified champions appear on all 3 brands for title defenses.
The Men’s Tag Team Titles were unified last year as well.
