Trish Stratus is back, and neꦯw WWE Women's Tag Team Champions have been crowned.
Lita made her return to WWE back on the February 6 episode of WWE Raw. There, she fended off Dakota Kai and IYO SKY in order to help Lynch ultimately win her Steel Cage match against Bayley. On the February 20 episode, Lita and Ly𝓡nch interrupted Bayley's "Ding Dong, Hello!" talk show and challenged Kai and SKY to a match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship. Bayley reluctantly accepted the challenge for her Damage CTRL stablemates, setting the stage for a major title match.
The clash headlined the February 27 edition of WWE Raw. Bay꧑ley interfered throughout the bout, and it seemed like she was on track to help the champions retain the gold. But in the closing moments, Stratus ran to the ring and took the fight to the former SmackDown Women's Champioꦦn.
