Asuka and Charlotte Flair will defend their WWE Women's tag team titles at Royal Rumble tonight against former champions, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. This match could go either way but there are massive chances that the losing team ends up exploding and turning on each other at Royal Rumble.

The pairing of Jax and Baszler has been fun but it is time for them to go their separate ways. The same goes for Asuka and Charlotte, especially because Asuka hasn't had a proper feud for the RAW Women's Championship for a long time now. Charlotte Flair has teased coming after the RAW Women's title, however, Alexa Bliss has also emerged as a possible contender who Asuka can feud with on the Road to WrestleMania 37.

SmackDown Women's Champion Sasha Banks will defend her title against Carmella at WWE Royal Rumble 2021 tonight. Carmella's return with her new 'untouchable' gimmick hasn't been going so well and even though the addition of the sommelier Reginald has been interesting, it is unlikely that Carmella will walk out of Royal Rumble as the new SmackDown Women's Champion.

Sasha Banks deserves a long reign with the title and in all likeliness, she'll walk into WrestleMania 37 as the SmackDown Women's Champion, possibly defending her title against the winner of the 2021 women's Royal Rumble match. More on that in the next slide.
