Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair are walking out of Lyon, France as the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. They defeated the Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) at Backlash which ends their reign at 99 days.
The end of the match had Belair save Cargill from a three count after Sane landed the InSane Elbow. Cargill fought off Asuka, and then counter a hurricanrana into Jaded on Sane. Belair hit the KOD on Asuka onto Sane and scored the pinfall victory by pinning Asuka.
This makes the first time that Belair has won the tag team titles in her WWE career. This is Cargill’s first overall title win since signing with the company.
Elsewhere on Backlash, Bayley retained the WWE Women’s Title in a Triple Threat that included Tiffany Stratton and Naomi.
The final moments of the match has Stratton land both Bayley and Naomi on the announce tables with a slingshot. Afterwards we saw Bayley and Naomi team up to hit a 3D on Stratton, which took her out of the match. Naomi had a cradle pin on Bayley, but Bayley reversed it and kept Naomi’s shoulders down for three to retain her title.
