WWE has introduced two singles titles to the NXT UK brand in the last two years – the United Kingdom Championship and the NXT UK Women’s Championship.

John Cena's last PPV's name revealed by Kurt Angle? More details HERE

On both occasions, a short-term champion was crowned before the biggest star of the division was made champion just a few months later. In 2017, Tyler Bate became the inaugural UK champion before Pete Dunne won the gold and began his 685-day reign. Then in 2018, Rhea Ripley’s NXT UK Women’s title victory aired in November, but just 44 days later, she lost the title to Toni Storm.

It looked as though WWE might decide to go down a similar route with the Women’s Tag Team titles at Elimination Chamber, with Sasha Banks & Bayley losing the match before finally getting their big moment at WrestleMania 35.

However, with the way the storyline panned out, The IIconics now look like the stars of the women’s tag division, and The Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection’s aura as the top female duo in WWE has totally disappeared.
