It seems as though the WWE women's tag team division has reached a roadblock after WrestleMania 37. WWE hasn't booked any women's tag teams as legitimate challengers who could dethrone Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler.

In recent memory, Natalya and Tamina have risen to the occasion on WWE SmackDown. But at the same time, their momentum took a hit when they lost against Jax and Baszler at WrestleMania.

Yet, WWE has tried to build Natalya and Tamina as legitimate contenders once again. After all, Natalya defeated Baszler on last week's SmackDown.

Tamina stepped up to Jax this week in a battle between two powerhouse competitors. While Tamina eventually secured a win, the victory only came about due to Reginald and Baszler's ringside drama.

Moreover, the match itself stuck out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of the bouts.

The Samoan connection between Nia Jax and Tamina makes up for an intriguing story. But judging by their recent SmackDown match, the two stars just don't seem to share good in-ring chemistry.
