Sasha Banks is on her way to another championship match at Wrestlemania 38. Unlike last year, she will be going after the tag team titles rather than gunning for the Smackdown Women’s Championship. The top superstar has just returned from a short hiatus to go right back into the title hunt as ‘Mania season continues on WWE programming.
With a brand new tag team partner by her side, Sasha Banks is literally glowing with confidence. Last night on Smackdown, she accompanied Naomi to the ring for a win over one-half of the Women’s Tag Team Champion Carmella. The Boss was dressed up just like Naomi who also assisted her tag partner in a hard-fought win over Mella by neutralizing Zelina Vega at ringside.

After the match, Naomi hit the ring to celebrate with Banks and announced that they will be the next WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. After laying down the challenge, the champions, Carmella and Zelina Vega accepted it to make the title match official for Wrestlemania 38.
Previously, there had been rumors on Sasha Banks vs. SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair for the title at WrestleMania 38, but WWE scrapped those plans after Ronda Rousey returned to win the Royal Rumble and set up the title match with Flair.
