WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill, are gearing up to defend their titles against Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson on SmackDown this week. Ahead of the highly anticipated match, Belair took to social media to send a brief message to their opponents, simply stating, “Come see us.”
This comes after the two teams clashed at Bad Blood last Saturday, where Belair and Cargill teamed up with Kelani Jordan to take on Fatal Influence in a six-woman tag team match on NXT, emerging victorious. Following the bout, Lash and Jakara confronted the champions backstage, challenging them to a match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
Belair and Cargill have been a formidable tag team partnership for several months, having held the Women’s Tag Team Titles twice. In a recent interview with Jordan Mendoza of USA Today, Belair praised her partner, Jade Cargill, saying she’s in the WWE to “break glass ceilings.” Belair added that it’s up to Cargill to capitalize on the opportunities available, stating, “At this point, it’s up to Jade if she wants to skyrocket, because it’s there and she can be there, and if she doesn’t get there, that’s on you, girl, that’s on you.”
The champions successfully defended their titles against The Unholy Union last month on RAW and are now preparing to face another tough challenge from Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson on SmackDown. Should they emerge victorious, Belair and Cargill will go on to defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship against IYO SKY and Kairi Sane on RAW next week.
