Going into last night's announcement from Stephanie McMahon, it was speculated that it would have something to do with WWE introducing Tag Team titles for the women's division.

They weren't mentioned during the reveal of WWE's first all-women's pay-per-view, but McMahon spoke to Sky Sports about her announcement and was asked if WWE would be adding Women's Tag Team titles at the PPV.

"Not quite yet but that's absolutely something we've heard loud and clear from our fan base and it's something we're keen on implementing as soon as we are able to," McMahon said.

The women's PPV will be called "Evolution" and will be held at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York on October 28. Titles from all of WWE's brands will be on the line, the Mae Young Classic finals will take place, and WWE is hyping that over 50 wrestlers from the past and present will take part in the show.

Bitch stfu right now about "what you've heard loud and clear from the fan base."

Worst thing I've heard in a while lol.

Oh sh*t. G-d damn you, IWC! Do I have to make "don't give Steph any ideas!" the new "don't give Russo any ideas!"?

Wouldn't mind seeing this implemented on NXT actually as an undercard women's belt. Would be a good way to get over some talent who aren't being groomed to and/or are directly feuding with Shayna.

I'd be for it, but they'd definitely need some call-backs from the main roster to get it going - which would also be just fine with me. They've only got, what, 6 ladies active in NXT right now? It'd be nice opportunity to continue working with all those girls they called up too early...

NXT is odd. You've got your "main" roster, which, for the women at this point seems to be:
Baszler
Candice
Nikki Cross (but she'll probably be gone soon)
Bianca Belair
Dakota Kai
Kairi Sane
Lacey Evans

Then they have "only show up occasionally" jobber to the stars kind of group, which is:
Aliyah
Vanessa Bourne

And... that's it.
Then they have a bunch of top names who they have signed (some to UK contracts) that haven't started yet:
Jinny
Toni Storm
Io Shirai

Of the "called up too early" crowd, I think the only one they can really reasonably bring back down is Dana Brooke. Carmella, (and especially) Bliss, and Nia are already WAY too much a part of the fabric of the division. You could send the IIconics back down, I guess, but it would really feel like a burial for them, as they haven't quite had a chance to fail on the monster yet like Dana has, if that makes any sense.

There's a reason Dana isn't really a wrestler anymore.

There's a reason Dana isn't really a wrestler anymore.

She just wrestled on Raw last week.
