Despite not having a good case for it, Shayna Baszler & Natalya spent last week talking up being added to the women’s tag team title match at WrestleMania 38 on Sun., April 3, 2022, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. This week, they actually did something about it.
Indeed, while Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, Sasha Banks, and Naomi were tearing the house down in a super fun tag team partial preview of the big event, Baszler & Nattie decided to hit the scene to force a disqualification and fully insert themselves into the title picture. They put the boots to everyone in the ring, which included Naomi, an enemy of a certain authority figure on this very show.
That was all it took:
