#5. Nikki Cross has her breakout moment

And new!
And new!

WrestleMania 36 kicked off with the Women's Tag Team Championships on the line, as Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross looked to regain the titles against the team who beat them for it - The Kabuki Warriors.

The Japanese duo have been dominant, but all reigns must come to an end and it was the right time and place for the title change to happen. It's no secret that Nikki Cross only managed to get a regular spot on TV due to her association with Alexa Bliss, but the entire situation has been a win-win.

It paired Bliss up with an underutilized superstar and they went on to become Champions together. They've now become the first team to win the Women's Tag Team titles twice. It's going to be exciting to see who their next challengers are, but what we noticed was that Nikki Cross was given the spotlight in a big way. She's been overshadowed by her tag team partner a lot, but at WrestleMania 36, she won the match of her team - even if she didn't get the pin.
