The Culling Earns WWE Women’s Tag Title Shot on NXT

On the September 9th episode of WWE NXT, The Culling (Izzi Dame & Tatum Paxley) won an elimination triple threat match against Fatal Influence and ZaRuca to become the new #1 contenders for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles. The match ended after Dame hit a high-flying move on Fallon Henley, securing the victory and a title shot against current champions Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair. This development adds anticipation to whether The Culling can dethrone the reigning champions. Additionally, WWE's tag team title history includes instances where titles were vacated due to injuries or storyline decisions, such as Sasha Banks and Naomi's reign ending with the title declared vacant and Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez relinquishing the titles due to injury. Looking ahead, WWE’s upcoming Wrestlepalooza 2025 event will feature high-profile matches and storylines, including tag team confrontations that continue to build momentum in the women's division. The growing prominence of women's tag team wrestling in WWE is underscored by these evolving rivalries and title opportunities.
