In a thrilling main event on the November 10, 2025, episode of WWE Raw at Boston’s TD Garden, the Kabuki Warriors Asuka and Kairi Sane reclaimed the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship by defeating the reigning champions Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss in a hard-fought battle.
A Clash of Titans in the Raw Main Event
The match was a back-and-forth showcase of skill and strategy, with both teams demonstrating why they are top contenders in WWE’s women’s division. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss entered first, dressed in all black, setting a fierce tone for their title defense. Asuka and Sane, the Kabuki Warriors, responded with their trademark high-energy offense and unwavering team chemistry.
Early on, the Kabuki Warriors managed to control large portions of the contest, using their combination offense to keep the champions on the defensive. However, Charlotte Flair fought back with impressive athleticism, landing a breathtaking moonsault on both opponents that nearly ended the match. The action continued to escalate with near-falls and counters, including a thrilling exchange where Asuka locked Flair in an Asuka Lock, only for Flair to escape into a Texas Cloverleaf submission[1][7].
Turning Point: Outside Interference and Tactical Advantage
The decisive moment came after Alexa Bliss and Kairi Sane brawled outside the ring, creating chaos that shifted the match’s momentum. Nia Jax and Lash Legend appeared at ringside to bash Bliss and distract Flair, upsetting the champions’ focus. This distraction allowed the Kabuki Warriors to execute their signature “In-Sane Elbow” finisher. With Sane holding Flair steady, Asuka delivered a devastating head kick, sealing the victory and securing their third reign as WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions[3][7].
An insider close to WWE backstage shared that the decision to have the Kabuki Warriors win was planned to capitalize on their proven popularity and to set up a high-stakes feud heading into Survivor Series and the upcoming WarGames pay-per-view. “The Kabuki Warriors bring credibility and excitement to the tag division, and WWE wants to build momentum around them as the division heats up,” the source explained.
Post-Match Chaos Sets Up Women’s WarGames Showdown
The post-match celebration was quickly interrupted as Nia Jax and Lash Legend continued their assault on Bliss and Flair. The Kabuki Warriors joined the fray, overwhelming the champions in a numbers game. Just when it seemed the champions were at the mercy of the villains, Iyo Sky’s music hit, and she stormed the ring to even the odds. Sky’s arrival led to a fierce brawl that brought Rhea Ripley rushing out to join the fray, delivering a massive Razor’s Edge to Kairi Sane.
Ripley then grabbed the microphone and issued a bold challenge for a Women’s WarGames match: herself, Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, and Iyo Sky versus the Kabuki Warriors, Nia Jax, and Lash Legend. This set the stage for an explosive, high-profile confrontation at WWE’s next premium event[3].
