#4: WWE RAW's Charlotte Flair and Asuka crossed-over to SmackDown in a match that featured some of the most popular female Superstars on the main roster

Charlotte Flair and Asuka won the WWE Women's tag team titles at TLC. Since then, The Queen has not only returned to RAW, but she also crossed-over to the Blue brand this week.

Bianca Belair's feud with Bayley was also addressed here, along with Sasha Banks and Carmella's aftermath from the TLC event. The heels - Carmella and Bayley - teamed up together against the babyfaces - Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair - and Charlotte Flair and Asuka in a Three-Way Tag Elimination Match with the WWE Women's tag team titles on the line.

Asuka and Sasha Banks are currently the two top female champions on RAW and SmackDown, respectively. So it was a Christmas treat for the fans to see them being a part of the same match, along with other major female stars in the current landscape of WWE.

Moreover, it was a good booking decision to take the women's tag team scenario to a different brand other than just Monday Night RAW.

Although Bayley and Carmella were first eliminated by Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair, could the heels team up more frequently to add more weight to the Women's Tag Team Division? Bayley and Carmella's mutual hatred for Sasha Banks could be an important catalyst behind their potential alliance. The final result of the aforementioned match from this week's SmackDown irked some WWE fans, which shall be covered in the next slide.
