At WWE Backlash Asuka and Kairi Sane defended the Women’s Tag Team Championships against the powerhouse duo of Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair. The Kabuki Warriors won the titles back in January on SmackDown defeating Katana Chance and Kayden Carter. They had four successful title defenses in their second reign as tag champions but that all came to a screeching halt when Cargill and Belair defeated them to win their first titles as a tag team.ย

For Cargill, it’s her first title in WWE after her debut last fall at Fastlane. She quickly shot up the ranks in the women’s division with her imposing figure, eventually finding herself aligning with Naomi and Belair. Cargill only has a few matches under her belt in WWE not counting her live event appearances. She made her WWE in-ring debut in this year’s Royal Rumble where she eliminated Nia Jax and then teamed with Belair and Naomi against Damage CTRL at WrestleMania 40 which they won.ย
Belair is now just a single title away from being a grand slam champion, needing to obtain the NXT Women’s Championship, something she didn’t do in her initial NXT run. She is, however, a triple crown champion, having won all major titles on the main roster. WWE fans in Lyon, France and at home lost their minds over the shocking title win.
