#2 Both tag team title matches at TLC end with new champions being crowned
Trending
In the first tag team championship match at TLC, The Hurt Business defeated The New Day to capture their first RAW tag team titles. It’s a well-deserving win considering how much they have carried RAW in recent months.
While the match itself was fantastic, as expected from these two teams, it was the minor disagreement between Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander that will get the people talking. During the ending stages of the match, Alexander tagged himself in by tapping the back of Benjamin. He would go on to secure the pinfall victory by executing the Lumber Check on Kingston. The veteran seemed displeased by Alexander stealing a pinfall which should have ideally been his.
In the other tag title bout at TLC, Asuka and a returning Charlotte Flair defeated the duo of Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax for the Women’s Tag Team Championship. There was no chance that the surprise return would have been anyone other than the former 12-time Women’s Champion. In a way, it was the most unsurprising of surprise returns in recent memory.
However, the question here is, did they have to win here at TLC? Of course, this will lead to an eventual RAW Women’s Championship between the two, while the tag titles are used as a catalyst to reach that point. Also, will this mean the RAW Women’s Champion can now head to SmackDown to seek challengers along with her partner?
