Asuka and Kairi Sane are the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.
As seen at the WWE Hell in a Cell pay-per-view event in Sacramento, California at the Golden 1 Center, Kabuki Warriors beat Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross to win the titles.
This was a last-minute match addition as the company only announced it a few hours before the show went live on WWE’s streaming service. This marks the first time that the two stars have held the straps.

This also comes after the company hadn’t done much with Asuka and Sane on television as of late as their push was dropped once their manager, Paige, had to undergo neck surgery.
Bliss and Cross beat The IIconics (Billie Kay & Peyton Royce) to win the titles and begin their reign as champs back on the August 5th episode of Monday Night RAW in Pittsburgh, PA at the PPG Paints Arena as part of a Fatal 4-Way Match.
Sane, Asuka, Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose were also featured in this contest.
As of this writing, there’s no word yet on when Bliss and Cross will get their rematch for the titles.
