Last week, we saw Lacey Evans turn heel on SmackDown after the whole SmackDown Karaoke segment. Another thing that we noticed is that Tamina is still a babyface and so is Naomi. So now we know that Sasha Banks and Bayley have singles opponents at SummerSlam, but it is difficult to imagine who will step up to challenge them for the Tag Team Championships next. I think it could very well be the team of Naomi and Tamina from WWE SmackDown.

Naomi and Tamina have a lot of history when it comes to being a cohesive unit considering that they were both a part of Team BAD once upon a time. The fact that they will be confronting Sasha Banks, who was also a member of the faction (provided this surprise actually takes place) adds a whole new dimension to the overall proceedings.

And yes, they could certainly be the team that can take the titles from Sasha Banks and Bayley after confronting them this week on WWE SmackDown.
