New NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions were crowned last night at NXT Vengeance Day 2023 premium live event. The duo who were locking horns even a month ago have become allies all of a sudden and now they can refer to themselves as champions after the latest concluded pay-per-view from the NXT brand.

The lineup from NXT Vengeance Day 2023 implies that Kiana James and Fallon Henley defeated Katana Chance and Kayden Carter to become the new NXT Women’s Tag Team champions. The finish saw James kicking Chance out of a top rope move after which Henley rolled up Carter while James held Carter’s feet so that couldn’t kick out of the referee’s three counts.
