Nick Aldis has confirmed the formation of a new WWE SmackDown women’s tag team featuring two accomplished champions, Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair. This pairing marks a significant development as the duo prepares to compete together for the WWE SmackDown new women’s tag team division, aiming for the Women’s WWE Tag Team Championship.
From Reluctance to Partnership
Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair have long shared an uncertain dynamic, with Bliss often attempting to form an alliance, only to face repeated refusals from Flair. However, after persistent effort, Aldis revealed that Flair ultimately agreed to join Bliss as a tag partner. Their first challenge came against Mia Yim and B-Fab, representing the Secret Hervice. Victory in this match would earn them a title shot at the Women’s WWE Tag Team Championship at the upcoming Evolution event.
Building Trust Amid Tension
Charlotte Flair’s initial hesitance gave way to acceptance, allowing the new team to officially come together. Bliss acknowledged her recent absence from the main stage, viewing this opportunity as a way to return to prominence.
“My God, Charlotte, I know, we’re not friends. I don’t want to be your friend. But we should be tag partners,” Bliss said.
Nick Aldis encouraged Bliss to trust his judgment on the team-up decision, reinforcing the potential benefits of this collaboration despite their complicated relationship.
Victory Sets the Stage for Championship Opportunity
Bliss and Flair won their qualifying match, securing the right to challenge for the Women’s WWE Tag Team Championship at Evolution. This newly formed team now faces the challenge of combining their strengths to claim the titles and make a significant impact within the SmackDown women’s tag team division.
