The best part of last night's show was the WWE Women's Tag Team titles defense. The ruined celebration of Bianca Belair wasn't that big thing, except for the fact that it bring us back to an old feaud of hers.
ASUKA RUINED BIANCA BELAIR'S CELEBRATION
Bianca Belair is still RAW Women's Champion, but drafted to SMACKDOWN! entered the ring last night to celebrate the longitude of her reign! 405+ days!
Not bad! Not bad at all! Everything was all fireworks, balloons decoration, etc., etc. Belair deserves that until Asuka entered and extended a hand to congratulate the champ... just to spit the Blue mist in her face.
Nothing new! Nothing surprising. We are looking at the revival of their WrestleMania rivalry. Not bad, because their match at WM was outshined by Rhea Ripley vs. Charlotte Flair! These two really need to do a better match. Bianca can do it! Asuka can do it! And here we are - watching the whole thing reignited again for a second take.
Am I excited? Are you? I am a bit. These two are top wrestlers on WWE's women's roster and I will always enjoy a good match between them. I doubt that Asuka might win, but who knows? 405 days reign is a bit boring. So, I am looking forward to it.

WWE WOMEN'S TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS RAQUEL RODRIGUEZ AND LIV MORGAN defeated DMAGAE CTRL (Bayley & Dakota Kai with Yio Sky)
WWE WOMEN'S TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE MATCH
DAMAGE CTRL falls victim to their own games!
The match was really entertaining, of really great quality. I love how the team of Morgan and Rodriguez works. I always have doubts when WWE packs teams out of nowhere, instead of presenting one or two already established ones. We have talked about it before. But, Liv and Raquel are in a really good synch and work so amazingly well together. The moment's when Rodriguez uses Morgan as a weapon are just so fun and unique as double team action. Also, Liv always laughing and smiling, brightens up the whole drama.
Bayley and Dakota did their best. I will always praise Kai for her kicks and amazing abilities in the ring and I always love to see her. Let's not forget her amazing heel turn a few years ago at NXT WarGames. She's a whole package! Bayley is Bayley... She is always her best annoying self outside and inside of the ring, and I enjoy it. She struggled a lot to establish her heel image.
Also, the NXT Women's Tag Team Champions Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre were watching the match from the backstage area and obviously having fun while measuring the opponents.
Both teams gave the maximum of themselves collectively and made a really good title defense match. The end was traditional but good - Yio Sky tried to interfere and it backfired badly as it caused distraction than giving any advantage, my kid - Liv Morgan was able to capitalize on the situation and pin The Role Model.
That incident makes me think if the future of DAMAGE Control is not set to be darker and lead to disbandment. We already have Yio Sky craving for singles action, so maybe we had taken that expected direction - to the end of the stable, last night.
Really, really, really great match!
WINNERS: WWE WOMEN'S TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS LIV MORGAN AND RAQUEL RODRIGUEZ
