WWE SmackDown Preview: Big betrayal involving Roman Reigns, surprise return before WrestleMania Backlash, title change on the cards? (May 14th, 2021)

#3 Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler defend their women’s tag team championships on WWE SmackDown

The Women's Tag Team titles will be on the line on WWE SmackDown this week

Tonight on WWE SmackDown, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler will put their women’s tag team championships on the line against Natalya and Tamina. Both teams have been feuding on the Blue brand for the last month. This storyline also saw Tamina and Natalya unleash a more ruthless side to their respective in-ring characters.

The two teams previously faced each other for the women’s tag team championships at WrestleMania 37. Natalya and Tamina won the Tag Team Turmoil match at The Show of Shows to win their title opportunity, but they couldn’t capitalize on the same. Since then, both superstars have worked hard to emerge as dominant contenders in the women’s tag team division on WWE SmackDown.

Owing to the recent booking of Natalya and Tamina, there’s a slight chance that we could see the women’s tag team titles change hands on WWE SmackDown this week. Jax and Baszler’s run as the tag team champions has gotten mundane, and they could use a change. That being said, there will be considerable doubt over Tamina and Natalya’s ability to carry the titles. Thus, this would be a tricky booking for the creative.
