Sophia Edwards Shayna Baszler and Ronda Rousey have emerged victorious as the WWE UNIFIED Women's Tag Team Champions. The dynamic duo achieved this remarkable feat by defeating Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre in a thrilling Women's Undisputed Tag Team Championship unification match during Friday's episode of SmackDown. The highly-anticipated title bout, widely promoted in advance of Friday's event, delivered on its promises and helped add respect to an often under-appreciated women's tag team division.The match unfolded as a fierce and hard-fought contest from the very beginning, showcasing the talent possessed by all four competitors. The ferocity and tenacity displayed by Dawn and Fyre allowed the NXT Champions to take an early lead, but the experience and toughness of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions were too much. As the battle raged on, the momentum swung back and forth, but at the end of the bout, it was clear that Rousey and Baszler were the better team.

With incredible precision and technique, they managed to submit both Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre simultaneously, forcing them to tap out and solidify their claim to the NXT Titles. Following the match, as Rousey called out Raquel Rodriguez (who was seated at ringside during the bout) Rousey asked why Rodriguez was even there. She responded that she wanted a rematch for the titles we never lost. When Baszler asked who "we" was, Liv Morgan made her return to WWE.

Baszler and Rousey's unyielding pursuit of excellence and desire to elevate the tag team division is obvious. That they put on a strong match is a positive sign for the future. That another formidable team is stepping up in Morgan and Rodriguez is just more good news. This should be an intriguing feud.
