WWE SmackDown women’s tag team stars Michin and B-Fab have introduced a new name for their alliance, calling themselves “Fabulous Hardcore.” The pair recently faced off against reigning Women’s Tag Team Champions Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez during a series of matches held in Monterrey, Mexico.
Though Michin and B-Fab have only competed together sporadically, the duo challenged the champions twice in consecutive nights at WWE house shows. Despite their efforts, the team was unable to secure a victory, falling to members of The Judgment Day.
Michin, who previously was part of The OC stable, shared several images on her X/Twitter account from their matches against Rodriguez and Perez, highlighting the enjoyment despite the losses. Through her posts, she officially announced the new team moniker “Fabulous Hardcore.”
Michin Eyes WWE Women’s United States Championship Next
Following her team‘s recent activity, Michin has also expressed interest in pursuing the WWE Women’s United States Championship held by Giulia. The title changed hands on the June 27 episode of Friday Night SmackDown, with Giulia defeating former champion Zelina Vega to win the belt in just her third singles match.
USA Network’s official X/Twitter account invited fans to suggest potential challengers for Giulia, sparking a bold response from Michin. She declared herself ready to step up and take on the champion, stating:
“Bold? Yeaaa I’m crazy enough for this 😈,” —Michin, WWE Superstar
This statement signals her ambition to compete for a singles title, although Giulia is scheduled to defend the United States Championship in a rematch against Zelina Vega later this week on SmackDown. The outcome of this match will determine whether Michin will find an immediate opportunity to challenge or will have to wait.
Looking Ahead: The Impact of ‘Fabulous Hardcore’ and Title Pursuits
Michin and B-Fab’s rebranding as “Fabulous Hardcore” positions them as an emerging team to watch in the women’s tag team division on WWE SmackDown. Their back-to-back challenges against the champions demonstrate a willingness to compete at high levels despite limited in-ring experience as a duo.
Meanwhile, Michin’s public challenge for the WWE Women’s United States Championship could shift focus toward her individual career ambitions. Pending the rematch outcome between Giulia and Zelina Vega, fans may soon see a new contender rise within the promotion’s women’s roster.
Both storylines add anticipation to upcoming episodes of SmackDown and set the stage for new rivalries and opportunities in WWE’s women’s divisions, with Michin and B-Fab aiming to make significant strides ahead of Raw.
