The Women's Tag Team Championship was on the line in a chaotic showdown at Saturday Night’s Main Event on January 24th, 2026, but the outcome left one team celebrating and another questioning what went wrong!
Get ready for a deep dive into the thrilling encounter between Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky, the reigning WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, and their formidable challengers, Judgment Day's Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez. This wasn't just a match; it was a high-stakes battle for supremacy!
From the outset, Judgment Day came out with a clear strategy, focusing their initial assault on Iyo Sky. They managed to gain a significant advantage, leaving Iyo struggling to find her footing. However, the ever-resilient Rhea Ripley made her presence known, entering the fray with her sights set on Liv Morgan. Ripley attempted her signature Razor's Edge, a move that could have ended the match, but Liv, with incredible agility, managed to slip away, keeping her team in the fight.
But here's where the momentum shifted dramatically! After Roxanne Perez was tagged in, Judgment Day regained the upper hand. Liv Morgan, with a breathtaking maneuver from the second rope, delivered a Codebreaker to Rhea Ripley. The crowd was on its feet, anticipating a potential pinfall, but Ripley, demonstrating incredible toughness, kicked out, refusing to surrender the championship.
You can't escape Mami, Liv. 😈
As the match progressed, things became increasingly frantic, with all four competitors finding themselves entangled in the ring. Judgment Day, working as a cohesive unit, managed to double-team Iyo Sky. Iyo, however, showcased her incredible resilience and skill. After expertly countering the Pop Rocks maneuver, she attempted her own spectacular Over the Moonsault. But Roxanne Perez, ever-watchful, managed to get her feet up, narrowly avoiding the devastating impact. Roxanne then retaliated with her own Pop Rocks, but in a testament to Iyo's tenacity, she managed to kick out just before the referee's hand hit the mat!
And this is the part most people miss… Just as the tide seemed to be turning, Rhea Ripley re-entered the fray. In a moment of brilliance, Iyo Sky landed her moonsault on Roxanne Perez. But the celebration was short-lived as Raquel Rodriguez made a surprise interference, attempting to disrupt the champions' momentum. However, before Raquel could make a significant impact, Stephanie McMahon made a dramatic run-in, immediately confronting and attacking Raquel, adding another layer of chaos to the already intense situation!
LA PRIMERA SAID "NOT SO FAST, RAQUEL!" 😏
Back in the squared circle, with Rhea Ripley now the legal participant, Liv Morgan executed her Oblivion on Iyo Sky. It looked like Judgment Day might finally seize the gold. However, in a stunning turn of events, Ripley quickly recovered and delivered her powerful Riptide to Liv Morgan, securing the pinfall victory and retaining the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships!
