Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler are the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
The duo won the belts on the May 29 episode of Monday Night Raw, as they were able to outlast the other duos of Raquel & Shotzi, Bayley & IYO SKY, Chelsea Green & Sonya Deville, & Ronda Rousey/Shayna Baszler.
To win the match, Ronda Rousey caught Shotzi in an armbar when she tried to perform a movie from the top rope. Seconds later, Shotzi tapped to the move.

The previous champions, Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, were forced to give up the belts on May 19 after Morgan sustained an injury in a title defense.
This win marks the first time that Ronda Rousey has held the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. Shayna Baszler has a history with the belts, as she and Nia Jax have held the titles on two occasions.
