WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles were vacated after former champions Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of Monday Night RAW a few weeks ago. It was reported that they were unhappy with their treatment as champions and the state of the tag team division. Since then, they have been stripped of their titles and have been indefinitely suspended.
According to the Fightful Select new reports, several backstage figures in WWE did not want to see the tag team championships vacated, but in the end they had no choice other than to make the decision.

Before Banks and Naomi walkout, they were scheduled to compete in a six-pack challenge to determine the number one contender for the Raw Women’s Championship at Hell In A Cell. However, the match ended up being a singles contest between Asuka and Becky Lynch.
