Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler vs Asuka and Lana announced for the Women’s Tag Team Title at WWE TLC. The two teams have faced each twice in two weeks now.
For all the talk about Lana being buried this is possibly the most exciting period of her wrestling career. There were talks she was being buried because of her husband’s promo over at AEW. Instead, she has had the most success she’s ever had.

This is brilliant booking that could bring an end to some storylines and start new ones.
By making Shayna and Nia their tag team champions, the WWE have left their singles division barren leaving Asuka without credible opponents to face. They have also made them look so dominating that it is hard to believe that any other team could legitimately beat them.
Asuka’s presence on the team gives them the credibility for the win. This will free up Shayna and Nia as singles competitor. Also, a defeat would serve as comeuppance for the latter who has tortured Lana for several weeks before.
They could then use Lana to drop the titles to an actual tag team without hurting anyone involved.
