WWE Backlash 2024: WWE Fans Are Loving Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill as Women's Tag Team Champions
Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair secured their first tag team titles at WWE Backlash.
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.
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.
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.

Unreal Finish
That Jade/Kairi finish was just like...unreal. After what was objectively a hot mess in the middle there, they all managed to find a way back in. Superstar shit.

Nobody Can Stop Them
Realistically there is not a two woman combination in wwe that should beat Bianca & Jade Cargill

Historic
Congrats to Bianca and Jade. Fun fact: The only other time a WWE title has ever changed hands in France, it was also a women’s title, when Rockin Robin beat Sensational Sherri in Paris in 1989.
