00:29is for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship.
00:40Introducing first, they are the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
00:51Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan.
00:59Well, Liv Morgan's got to be happy.
01:01Her boyfriend, Dominic Mysterio, won the Intercontinental Championship earlier on tonight.
01:05Now, Liv defends the Tag Team titles.
01:08I don't know if you guys saw the Countdown show earlier today.
01:10Counting Kelly in a very interesting interview with these two.
01:14Liv got very defensive when Counting started bringing up the attack on Bayley yesterday.
01:20Liv said we had nothing to do with it, but nobody was accusing them of anything.
01:24Well, Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez have some prior history with false accusations
01:30being thrown their way after the whole Jay Cargill attack.
01:34So I'm sure there's an element of PTSD floating around their minds at the moment.
01:38Yeah, certainly probably get a little defensive if people think that they're doing
01:41things they're not doing.
01:42What they are doing is championship title reigns more than anybody else in the history.
01:47Yeah, three-time tag champs, that's a record.
01:49They call themselves the greatest women's tag team of all time, and there's stats that back that up.
01:54The judgment days, world tag team champs are taking in the serenade of the love of Las Vegas.
02:22Never, never a true award said, pal.
02:25You've got me back.
02:26Woo!
02:28Woo!
02:30Woo!
02:32Woo!
02:33Woo!
02:34Woo!
02:35Woo!
02:36Yeah, we don't do it there.
02:40We've learned.
02:41I didn't hear you woo it, Wade.
02:44Have some respect for our Intercontinental Champion.
02:48Introducing the challengers, first, she is the women's Intercontinental Champion, Lyra Valkyria.
03:08To be clear, pal, I respect Lyra Valkyria in singles competition.
03:12However, she's heading down to the ring now with whoever a partner may end up being.
03:17It's gonna be a hastily thrown together tag team against the tag champs.
03:22Three-time tag champs.
03:23Let me stop you there.
03:24Lyra and Bayley were a hastily thrown together tag team, and they went on to win a gauntlet match to qualify for this tonight.
03:31You got me there, Lightning did in the strike a couple of weeks ago when that team ran the gauntlet.
03:37Lightning doesn't strike twice.
03:39Enjoy it while it lasted, Lyra.
03:41You'll be back to singles competition before you know it.
03:45Lyra is a prodigy.
03:46I think if you put anybody with her, they have a great chance to win anything.
03:50So who will it be?
03:51My girl, who did you get?
03:53How do you feel now, Wade?
04:14And her tag team partner from Dublin, Ireland, Becky Lynch.
04:32I got goosebumps.
04:34The man has come back around to Las Vegas, Nevada.
04:40And Liv Morgan has got to be beside herself.
04:44The last time we saw Becky Lynch was almost a year ago.
04:48When Liv Morgan beat her inside a steel cage.
04:53Liv Morgan's been telling the world for the last year that she retired Becky Lynch.
05:0060,000 plus jaws just hit the ground because the man is back.
05:09Lyra Valkyria with her fellow country woman Becky Lynch to team tonight.
05:15And Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.
05:18A little scared.
05:19They're gonna have the game plan pretty quick.
05:21A little scared.
05:22What happened, ladies?
05:23What happened, ladies?
05:24A little scared.
05:25What happened, ladies?
05:26We'll start mouthing off at the Tag Team Champions because technically,
05:29this is highly unfair.
05:30They've had no time to prepare for this opponent and technically, in my opinion,
05:33this match should be struck off the card.
05:38Becky Lynch just asked the Judgment Day if the Judgment Day can hear this crowd 100% on Becky Lynch's side.
05:56Liv, are you scared?
05:58And I'll count you a little nervous.
06:00Are you scared?
06:01Are you scared?
06:03Uh-oh, you're scared.
06:06You're scared.
06:07You're scared.
06:08You're scared.
06:09You're scared.
06:10Double of bias, commentators to my left right here.
06:12Behave yourselves and act like professionals allow these athletes to get into game mode.
06:17They're scared.
06:18I simply asked her a question, Wade.
06:20You asked her 60 times in a row and it wasn't asking, it was taunting.
06:24So this is interesting.
06:25Lyra Valkyria and Becky Lynch have become great friends over the last couple of years.
06:30Lyra Valkyria really, she got herself on the map when she knocked off Becky Lynch for the NXT Women's Championship.
06:40Well, the reason Lyra Valkyria got into the industry in the first place is because of her admiration for Becky Lynch, the fellow Dubliner who has become over time something of a mentor.
06:55Allow me to bring everyone back down to work after all the excitement of the past couple of minutes.
07:00Becky Lynch has not competed in the last 12 months.
07:03How rusty is she gonna be in this hastily thrown together tag team?
07:07There he is, Mr. Buzzkill, Wade Barrett.
07:09This is the realist.
07:10Liv Morgan looks to start things off against Becky Lynch.
07:13Again, I mentioned the history between these two.
07:15Liv took the title from Becky Lynch back in May of last year, thanks to Dirty Dom.
07:19And now the tag will be made to the powerhouse, Raquel Rodriguez.
07:23And Becky with a right hand.
07:34Becky Lynch has been a tremendous performer at WrestleMania.
07:38Remember, she was one of the three women to become the first woman in history to main event WrestleMania back at WrestleMania 35.
07:46Wait a minute.
07:47And now Becky's quickly trying to choke out Raquel Rodriguez to start this matchup.
07:51A lot of people have talked about everything that Becky's been doing since her last match.
07:55Tag.
07:56How about training and getting better?
07:58And here's Lyra Valkyria, the Intercontinental Champion, who is now legal.
08:02Two Irish ladies beating up Raquel Rodriguez right now.
08:06Lyra beat Raquel with the title on the line a few weeks ago.
08:10Lyra's been a great champion as she delivers the step up to Zagiri.
08:14She's gonna cartwheel off of Raquel.
08:16Nice deep arm drag, and this is the WrestleMania debut of Lyra Valkyria.
08:22What a nice entrance into the match that was.
08:24No signs of nerves whatsoever for this youngster.
08:28Lyra now with a kick with Raquel Rodriguez.
08:32Just having Becky Lynch by your side must be a massive confidence boost after that initial loss of Bayley.
08:39I'll tell you, Wade, after watching Lyra since her debut at Monday Night Raw,
08:43she has the confidence through and through.
08:45Now, Kiria has to kick Morgan on the apron.
08:50I was unbelievable.
08:53Yes.
08:55Raquel coming.
08:56Ally to the boot.
08:59And this referee, Jason Ayres, a little too slow on that count for my liking,
09:03allowing himself to be distracted by Becky Lynch, and that cost Raquel and Lyft.
09:09That was great tag team wrestling there by Becky Lynch.
09:11Distracting the left, so he couldn't get the three count.
09:14But Liv Morgan tossing Lyra right into the boot.
09:18And here comes the tag to Morgan.
09:20Liv, of course, a two-time women's champion, proud jewel champion as well.
09:26Three times a tag champ and a Money in the Bank winner, and here comes Raquel Rodriguez.
09:31We mentioned the three tag team title runners with Morgan.
09:33She also held a tag team title with Aaliyah, and that makes her a four-time tag team champion.
09:40An absolute tag specialist no matter who the partner is, but I'll tell you this right now,
09:452025 has been the Liv Morgan World Domination Tour in large part because of that presence of the powerhouse Rodriguez.
09:55Well, Raquel Rodriguez won't do anything for Liv Morgan.
09:59Tag team champions now have isolated and beginning to dominate the Intercontinental Champion.
10:06This is what happens when a real tag team in Liv and Raquel goes up against a hastily thrown together tag team with no chemistry, no cohesion, just a little bit of friendship.
10:18Much like Dominic did earlier, Liv this time actually connected with the three amigos.
10:24It could be a glorious evening in the Judgment Day clubhouse.
10:28And now Becky Lynch completely losing the plot.
10:31And our tag team champs are taking advantage.
10:34Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan got Lyra isolated.
10:38The rush of blood to the head to Becky Lynch who has been out of action for a significant amount of time.
10:45And is now getting frustrated as the minutes go on.
10:48Power of Rodriguez, cover to retain, kick out by Lyra.
10:52Feathers exploding all over the ring on that impact there.
10:57And Lyra Valkyria is in big trouble.
10:59It's a duck hunt out here.
11:01Birds everywhere.
11:02Big boot from Liv Morgan.
11:05Raquel's got the power.
11:07Liv's got the ruthlessness.
11:09That's why they're three time tag team champ.
11:11Lyra Valkyria needs the durability here.
11:14She has to try and ride out this storm and try, try, try to get over to the fresh Becky Lynch.
11:21This is classic tag team wrestling here, isolating the opponent frequent tags in and out.
11:26That's exactly why they have consistently won tag gold, held on to tag gold.
11:32But that maneuverability of Valkyria may be the opportunity.
11:35There was no tag there to Liv Morgan risking a disqualified.
11:40Kick right to the ear by Valkyria.
11:43Lyra needs a tag bag.
11:46What timing there from Liv Morgan.
11:52Just an absolute menace out here Liv Morgan is.
11:55She just made Becky angry is all she did.
11:57And Becky Lynch now in pursuit of Morgan.
11:59Liv runs her right into.
12:03Raquel with a boot to Becky.
12:05Classic cat and mouse right there.
12:08The officials lost complete control of this.
12:11Now looking to settle things down again.
12:14The officials lost control but more importantly than that, Valkyria has lost all control.
12:19There's a big slam by Rodriguez to retain yet again and Lyra kicks out.
12:27Liv Morgan grabbed the title, thought it was over, how could you not?
12:30What a commanding performance it has been from Raquel Rodriguez.
12:34It's hard to step out the spotlight or into the spotlight when you're next to Liv Morgan.
12:39But Raquel Rodriguez, this is a major coming out party.
12:43Lyra, great move, hanging out of the ropes, trying to battle back now.
12:48Elbow by Valkyria, but a great Intercontinental Champion.
12:51Posted, shoulder first for Raquel.
12:54Tag made, here comes the man.
12:58And Becky gets some revenge here on Liv Morgan.
13:06Been almost a year, Lynch has been waiting for this.
13:10Absolutely, the WWE Universe has been waiting as well.
13:16Step up into Gary Carter on the shoulder.
13:19Didn't catch a clean, but adds another right to the face.
13:23And one to the other side, to Liv Morgan.
13:26And Becky looks in tremendous shape, Wade.
13:28Yeah, no signs of ring rust whatsoever.
13:30Unmatched finesse from the man, Becky.
13:34Lynch going skyward.
13:35And Becky down goes Rodriguez.
13:38Rolls through her.
13:39Liv Morgan.
13:40The Beck splatter.
13:44What a night it was for hubby Seth freakin' Rollins last night.
13:49Well, depends how you look at it.
13:51Got victory in the main event, Cole.
13:54How would you put it?
13:56And Becky.
13:57Baseball slide, takes Morgan out.
13:58Becky Lynch is in mid-season form.
14:01Potentially acquiring gold imminently.
14:04One, two, one.
14:05Becky down, takes out Morgan.
14:07Big right on the outside.
14:09Liv Morgan.
14:10Back into the ring.
14:11Getting ragdolled around by the Mon.
14:14Liv Morgan just scrambling and everything she's trying is doing.
14:18And now into the disarmor.
14:20Looking for the disarmor now.
14:22Morgan though able to turn it around.
14:24Didn't quite get it.
14:25Now she's gonna get the disarmor.
14:27Arm bar to the disarmor.
14:29Becky's got it locked in.
14:30Becky's got it locked in.
14:32Is Morgan gonna tap out to the disarmor?
14:35And a boot right to the face.
14:37Answering the prayers of Liv Morgan.
14:40Raquel Rodriguez saving the gold for her team.
14:44Not only that, getting back in full control.
14:47Raquel, got out of control, sent over the top rope.
14:50Morgan looking to capitalize.
14:52Smart by Lynch there, using the momentum.
14:54Look at the rope, let me in!
14:56Good night, Becky.
14:58Cover by Morgan.
14:59Valkeria breaks it up.
15:01Just enough left in the tank of the Intercontinental champ to keep this one alive.
15:07I have no idea where Lyra came from.
15:09Perfect timing for her and Becky Lynch.
15:13Able to hang on, delivered a kick.
15:16Going for oblivion again.
15:17Lyra Valkeria caught by Rodriguez.
15:21Raquel's taken out with an DDT.
15:24Tornado DDT on the outside.
15:27Morgan drops Lyra Valkeria.
15:29Becky back on her feet.
15:31She's got Morgan.
15:32There it is.
15:33The man handle slam.
15:35Becky and Lyra win the gold.
15:37Here are your winners in the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
