The WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship was introduced as a direct competitor to the Men’s Tag Team Championship, and to put both the male and female rosters on an equal status. However, unlike their male counterpart, the Women’s Tag Team Championship is defended in both blue and red brands.

The inaugural champions were Sasha Banks and Bayley, who then went by the name, ‘The Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection’. The duo won the championship at the Elimination Chamber 2019. Since then, the championship has seen several reigns and numerous champions.
